Brian,
My photographer is Majeed a med student with a passion for cars who also can't believe it I'm selling Blackie. Keep the flame burning.

I bought Blackie in 96 after I returned form Germany after I bought a speed yellow Carrera with a factory delivey. It was meant to be as I had a call from the dealer who told me, he had a customer who has a turbo with 800 miles and wants an speed yellow tip. The deal was done in about 5 minutes.

to be continued..

Mooty your right. Nothing stock will replace Blackie. It will be something special and it will be german. It will weigh 3250 lbs.

I cant deal with this right now.............I have to go and have a lay down............first it was Toby deserting us for the wet side and then Jean started to be absent for weeks at a time and now.........now Jimmy puts Blacky up for sale..............this is the beginning of the end.............Jimmy, cant you just keep Blacky?.......get the new one by all means but do you have to sell to do it?............you will come back here and offer advice and at first you will be treated with distance and confusion........later, contempt and distrust will set in.........things wont be the same...........why do things have to change all the time............oh no!.........I have to go have that lay down!

Dan just do what I did. Buy Blackie and then sell your perfectly good existing car that looks identical as far as your wife is concerned.......
THAT'S salesmanship.
