Raises a good question: if you wife/girlfriend kept a log book and you found it what would you do? would you read it? Contact the "PO" and "OO"? Hmmm.

I believe that would be her "DME" scan.

If ya'll had bought from a private seller, you'd not only know the answer to this question, but you'd be a few $k richer for not paying the dealer mark-ups.

First owner of my car apparently pissed someone off shortly after purchase. All panels were keyed, first owner had the entire car resprayed then drove it for a number of years.

There have been 2 of my ex 911's that I wonder about, both bought from owners in DE
First one was a 77 Carrera Targa, Oak Leaf Metallic Green/Black that I bought from Kremer Brothers in KOLN...they had built up this car with a 3.2 non turbo, it was a bitch to drive because of the clutch, and if you "hot" stalled it, it would not restart easily....I had it a year and sold it to a guy out in CO or something.
The second was a 79 Coupe Red/Black that I had made into a T/L after a fender bender, also a car I imported from DE in 85...I loved this car, never any problems, but Unk Sam wanted a huge amount of $ from me for back taxes (I screwed up) and I had to sell it quickly....the others were just ordinary 911's, and Boxsters
