Hi all,
After much debate, I've decided to put my Birkin up for sale to raise money for a new
business that I'm trying to start. I bought the Birkin from its original owner in 2002 and
had Woody Harris of BirkinSport (now MSI Motorsports) sort it out and upgrade some bits.
Of course, he's done a fabulous job—it's a frighteningly fast car (you can ask him all about
it)—but I've been away so much I've done less than 1000 miles total on it.
Some of the meaty details:
- STREET LEGAL, California registered as 2002 (chassis is 2000)
- Color is RED and bare aluminum
- Engine was built by Pete Challinor of Circle C Performance and is a high-output, high-
compression, 215 hp ZETEC
- Gearbox is also from Circle C, and is an SPC Semi Helical, Semi Close Ratio box
- Originally set up with the DUNNELL engine management system (which I still have) I had
Woody upgrade to the fully-programmable killer EMERALD K3 ECU, with new injectors, etc.
- ITG Air filter (have OLD K& N filter too)
- RACELINE Water rail
- EIBACH shocks and springs
- New Battery
- New high-output Starter
- New BOSCH FI Fuel Pump
- Oil Cooler
- 4 point Harness
- Steel Braided Front Brake Lines, etc...
I have about $38K in the car and will consider all reasonable offers.
The car is currently garaged in Sonoma Country, near San Francisco.

One big regret is not having the opportunity to run around with some of you on this great
list!
