Thank you, sir.

I looked for a long time to find it.

Several months back, Porsche Roslyn had an exact clone of it...same colors...options...even almost identical mileage (high 20's at the time). Not sure if they still have it or if it's on consignment somewhere. I seem to recall they were asking in the high 50's for it.

Yep, missed it by that much...unfortunately, it sold a couple of hours before I got wind. I'm hopeful something will come up soon though.

My car is in the shop, and I am traveling for work for the next week. I should have pics of mine when I return and will resurrect this thread to post them if needed !
Thanks Jeff - that's exactly what I did - bought a second set of twists from a fellow RLister that were straight but in need of a refinish and had them done locally. My original twists haven't been on since!

Subscribed. Several of these colored threads out which is great - hopefully I can sell my M3 'vert soon and join the crowd. In the meantime great pictures!

Man, after some intense reading it's nice to browse through these light hearted color ones.

As promised, the exciting conclusion of "Dave has bodywork done".

Mike and Dave and their crew at Bodymotion did a great job fixing the car up. Lots of little things needed to be fixed, and now the car really pops! I thought they did a great job blending the color; you really can't tell that only the front has been resprayed. The wiper delete also worked out great! They even made a nice leather cover for the wiper arm hole in the decklid... very spiffy.

Without further ado...











Shiny!

- Dave
