Any interest in a low mileage NX

The 400k SE-R has the potential to be like R&T's million-mile Miata, or
like the LeMons "K It Forward" Aries wagon! :)

My SE-R has been in the garage since 2008 but I am finally making progress
on it again. My problem is that my unheated garages make car work
impractical in winter, but when it's non-winter there are always other
things I want to do, like ride my bike or etc. etc. I picked up a
non-cracked JWT header and secondary and OE exhaust midsection and rear STB
last fall from Josh Sytek in WI to take care of a couple of needs and one
want - if only I could find my Mark Schoenholz header heat shield that
disappeared years ago! :)
