Yeah I suppose I did actually. I've watched him for a long time actually but just recently realized that I could just do that same as well. But copart fees are kind of pricey. If I got a wrecked BRZ for $3,000, I'd have to pay like 750 to copart! about $350 for a uhaul towing it back. loosely guessing 1500 to 2000 to repair a front end collision, depends if I can find a inexpensive source for parts. Not bad for a newish car but still pricey. Not a lot of money left for mods. But then I don't have to spend 1500 for just a hardtop and rollbar on a Miata! And E36 is a practical choice but I just don't like them as much.
There might be a few people in the club that could help you with auction cars, first that comes to mind is Alex Peery but I’m sure there are others, plus people with trailers/trucks to help out if you’re serious about it! I feel that on the e36, I’m guessing they both have the same power/weight ratios. And that’s before you turbo the BRZ...[emoji102]
