How did you find the Goblin?
I was searching for a replacement for my S2000 where I could work on the car without tanking its value
What drew you to the Goblin?
The community, first and foremost, and the reviews of the quality, completeness, and simplicity of the kit.
How does it fit into your lifestyle?
Both
What have you modified that sets it apart?
M62 + S257 Twincharged LSJ
Any memorable trips, races, or events?
Countless autocross, track days, mountain runs, and, pre-children, fair weather daily driver
Favorite aspect (design, performance, or community)?
I love that any Goblin is so unique on the road, and that I've made mine my own. I also love how cheap it is to drive, with the cost of track day consumables a fraction of anything else nearly as fun to drive
Any future plans?
stay tuned...
