It doesn't read like Todd. The ebay car for sale is his.

Yes, if you're not Todd, talk to Todd. He hangs out on Pelican now and has the cars you're looking for.

you'd be hard pressed to beat this 968, makes my 47k S4 look bad

"Anything - just hot and young. I know you guys must know some. Introduce me!"

"well... Angela's in here usually on Thursday's and she's amazing, but she also has a thing for diamonds in the 4 carat category... She tends to sit at that table over there..."

"So introduce me already!"

".... um... we just told you where to find her"
Great analogy. I came to this forum for some collector quality cars and have found that most of the people here are sarcastic. I'm really not interested in battling wits with anyone, i, just simply want to find a few low mileage cars. If you wouldn't mind, please keep the sarcasm to yourself as it is a distraction to my ultimate goal. If I have done something wrong in this forum, please let me know, ill apologize. If this continues, I will leave the forum and search in other areas. To everyone that has helped up to this point. Thanks!

Nope, "three on the tree" is a manual transmission with the shifter mounted on the colunmn.

True, and did not tend to do well shifting hard and fast. Things would break...

Philip, I would love to see pictures of the slantnose you just purchased, I've always been a huge fan of these. Pictures will also help many of us determine the quality of car you are searching for.

Honestly mine isn't for sale and I apologize for the sarcasm. But if you find something in the Boston area I would be happy to look at it and offer my opinion on the overall cosmetic condition.

Good luck on your hunt.

I don't think you have done anything wrong and hope you don't leave just because of a few other members. Most you will come across are helpful and polite although any specific forum will be defensive of their particular model....good luck on your search.

I told him to search your name and contact you about your 968. Not sure if he is serious about buying though or he would have already contacted you.
