Thanks for all the encouragement!!
Rich.......WOW, over 220,000 miles and Javier at 152,000.........you guys are my new heroes!!!
Are there any particular service issues I should be aware of as I start to put some miles on the car? I should note that I have an excellent mechanic in Ken Rosegay at Zuffenhausen Motors here in Scottsdale, who I found from recommendations on the RL Board.

Without pics, this thread is....

(+1, by the way, on making your car a DD...mine was for my Dad for ten years, and it's now all mine - still only 66,000 miles to date)

Yes, yes, yes - drive it!
My '98 C2S had 57K when I bought it and has close to 74K now in just under two years. I'd drive it every day if I could.
Sometimes...it's even raining when I drive! Whoo....

I thought about this thread today coming from work. I went through an underpass and that Supercup exhaust makes me smile everytime! Put the miles on it... how many cars can make you smile on your way to work?
P.s. I don't recommend Supercups on D.D. Kinda loud...

I let mey 84 Targa sit in the garage much too often. I had Hagerty insurance on it with all the normal limitations, so I didn't drive it to work, etc. With this one, I just put it on my normal driver policy so I can drive it. Now I'm getting it out every chance I get, although I still expect it'll be less than 8k a year.
I even got it out yesterday when I said I was waiting until after the first good rain to wash all the salt and crap off the road after snowing twice last week. I figure it needs a good bath anyway so what the hell.
Enjoy!

After a week in a Taurus X running around Hawaii (and nearly 1000 miles!), it was a pleasure to slide into the C4S in the darkness of the early morning and drive to the shop!
