Help me find my M8 Cabrio unicorn please!

OK guys, I know how bad this sounds........

But here I am, the dreaded "first time poster" looking for help on finding a car. Rest assured, I am not a troll!!! I am a lifelong Porsche fanatic who hangs out on Rennlist, as well as a recovering McLaren addict who now tries to stay away from McLarenLife.


So here's my deal.... I have been daily driving an M8 Gran Coupe Competition for about 2 1/2 years out in CA. I also spend half my time in TN and need a toy out there. I'd like a 2020 or 2022 M8 Competition Cabrio, but my selection criteria make it a tough car to locate:

The car most be a Competition!
MUST have ceramic brakes
I prefer 20K miles or less, but I can bend a little for the right car.
I really prefer an Individual paint color. My current M8 is Daytona Violet Metallic Daytona and I am looking for something equally unique!
Strongly prefer Silverstone interior, but I will consider other options except black!
I want a no stories car with no accident history or paintwork!

Location of the car isn't that important. If the car is closer to the West Coast, then I will just ship my M8GC out to TN. If the car is back East, I will ship it to my place in TN and keep the M8GC in CA.

I would be most grateful for any leads you guys might be able to provide. I look forward to becoming active in the community here. Best regards to all.

You mean something like this: Only thing missing is the CCB's but found a set for just about 14k bolt on.

I like your requirements but it will be hard to find.
Here is mine (not for sale!) in individual paint:

If you only want the CCBS for dust- the ISweep pad solution is a better alternative and a more tangible way to go vs finding that unicorn?

I swear by them as a car driving rapist and late braker.
