Congrats on the sale. I've just been too busy to even flip the coin. Still want to unload the car but working on two other cars first. My '68 F100 is supposed to be gone next weekend. Will maybe focus on the TT after that

This has been a lot more interesting that the current book I've been reading. Thanks for the suspenseful thread. Had my heart beating through my chest almost as must as the movie THE WALK I saw today.

And I bought it with no regard to its monetary investment value. I bought this car simply because I'm going to enjoy driving it and it's THE color and spec I have been looking for. Over 500 miles so far in the first two weeks and a big road trip coming up.

That's what it's about! Glad you found the car of your dreams. Shame you couldn't have found it about 4 years ago, huh?

I bought a '97 with 16k miles on it two years ago and sold it in April. I did pretty well on that car

problem was I couldn't put miles on it. Problem solved.
