Default GT4#1 gone #2@ port
Picked up the buyer a,great guy (fourm member) and his daughter at the airport. Less than a hour later they were on there way home.

GT4#2 same low option build RY but with LWBs. Should be at the dealer in a week .

The bad news is now I have to go through doing all the set up and sorting out again . I had the car dialed! Carl

Congrats on the sale, and the new incoming car with LWB.

You get to have the fun of break in and set up TWICE! Enjoy in the best of health!

That is a great photo of father & daughter.

Thanks I have mixed emotions about the seats. I feel the lwbs are better on the track . I think the two ways are a better all-around seat. Would've kept the car if I could've used a harness with two ways just my opinion. Carl

Congrats!

I love the LWB seats in this car. They just feel right to me.

I think you did the right thing if you really wanted LWBs. Life is too short. I am swapping a Profi XL in and out for the track since I daily my car.

I've made a few sales like that in the past. Works great for both sides.

I've also sold many cars to out of state buyers and have also picked them up at the airport... All have been positive experiences for both sides.

Congrats to both parties!!

And 6 hours later, the car received a warm welcome from the new family.
Now, she is resting in a comfy spot from a long trip.



It was a fantastic trip from the beginning to the end.
I would like to give big thanks to Carl for his hospitality and attention to details!

So, if the wife won't notice a different Yellow car, does she notice the car missing for a week?

Tis better to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission.

I would've had the same exact excuse!!
