Great thing about mooty he is a great person aswell- the Misses really likes him and his family. She just finds him a bit nuts because of his car obsession and $ that it cost.
Yes he is. I've spoke with him years back when looking for a GT3. I doubt he remembers with all the people contacting him for advice...

luckily for me I've already set a chunk of $$ aside for mods, and ok-ed by the wifee BUT I will need MORE $$ lol

And luckily for me I am not in the bay area, much harder to resist for you...

i tried explaining to her that its a durable good with little diminishing value as these always cost a fortune. Didn't phase her. She still thinks your insane with the 4.0 + tool box + she saw all your car wax/shine/shampoo..you made me look sane.. maybe i should take her over more often so she realizes i'm sane ? LOL
