    Default Hi, im new to the forums.

    I'm Kyle, I am 19 in school, working for a BMW shop here west of downtown FW and help with some spec miata race stuff on the side. although i dont have a miata yet, i have been looking for months....just havent found "the one". i used to autox the tires off of my 90 ford probe which im trying to sell and havent yet. that little car did amazing things, not sure how it did so well.

    Welcome to the board, Kyle!

    Say... that wouldn't happen to be a Ford Probe that was using blacked out 3rd gen RX7 wheels, was it?

    Yep, the black M2 is my buddy Chris... He's also got coilovers, M2 sport and a few other goodies...

    He spends the evening building spec cars, so if you need any "stock" parts that they don't use, he's generally a good contact. I'm prety sure I've mentioned him before...

    the m2 on the wheels is mine. just your average car nut driving cars that are cheap and fun, but working on cars that break and expensive....

    someone please buy his farkin Probe, so he will finally buy a miata, and i can quit hearing about his plans on his soon to be miata.

    i see the green one all the time, stop by some time, we're normally not really doing anything important (except pissing off the owner)
