Chasing an old JDM Import - Dark Cherry with Overfenders

MX5 Humans,
I keep having this recurring vision of an import NA I missed out on buying back in the day.
It was a dark cherry colour, built motor with HKS Cams, huge overfenders with big dishy Panasport G7s on it.
Just wondering if anyone knows the car or has pictures. Last I saw it was for sale in Tasmania maybe?
Many Thanks,
Jeff

Only one close to the description that I remember seeing is this....
And from memory it was up for sale recently.
I believe the owner or someone familiar with the owner is a member of this forum.
Anyone?

That sort of looks like it. Looks effing terrible on those Rotas though. I think it had Gold 3pc Panasports on it when I saw it?

Yeah that's it. Thanks Paul. Much like an old girlfriend, I remember her being much hotter. I think I prefer mine now...

what do you want to know about it?
I know the owner, so can easily ask him. (I don't think he's on the forums)

Ty. What sort of coin were you after for it, and do you have any up to date pics?

Hahaha I love people who are judgemental of knock offs but can't actually recognise them to begin with
Also the car had Watanabe's on it before it was sold, not Panasports LOL

It wasn't my intention to offend, or start a pi$$ing match about knock offs. I'm pretty sure when I first saw the car before it left Japan it had a set of these on it in gold:

Sorry its no longer for sale i have decided to keep it. I was only selling as I wanted a 4 seater but I just ended up buying a mk1 golf as a second car.
I was asking $7500 ono
also sorry for the late reply I don't go on this forum much as most people on here act like children and it all turns into a pissing match very quickly.
please don't take that comment as the beginning of said match...

Hey good on you for keeping the car Ty! You always had a soft spot for it, so I'm glad you decided to hang on to it
