I don't know why anyone would want a spitfire. They are really crappy cars. They look good but chances are it will have more miles on the back of a truck than it can manage under it's own power. I plan on restoring it for my sister but only using stock body panels. Everything under it will be a different car. Prob a chevette if I can find a decent running one cheap.

The only problem with parking in that thing was I had to do it twice. I pulled in but there is no way to open the hatch from the inside so I had to back out of it. Then I could unlock my hatch and pull back in so I could get out and get a picture of it. With both mirrors now gone I bet I could get in and out of one of those things easy. I need to try it again and update the pic with my new metro

That's funny, I did the SAME thing the first day I got my metro. Although mine doesn't fit the mirrors hit.

I love the Coyote.
I have recently started doing some homework on them. I think it would be a blast to drive that thing in rush hour traffic. The looks from people would be priceless.
