I'm thinking about buying a ti. Ask all your questions about the possible purchase of a ti. Keep in mind, we are biased.

cmon... i know u didn't really think i'd leave it that way...

i wouldn't hack up the original mpr interior - i'd trade the seats and panels just the way they are, since they're rare compared to other interiors. i'd throw in some vaders and wrap all the seats and panels in black/lm blue alcantara. call it a day.

Well, since I don't know you, I could only HOPE that you wouldn't leave it like that.

It's not exactly a "certification" because I don't have time to create the certificate. But, I think the attached "Seal of Approval" should be sufficient.

DW415, if you keep the Club Sport it's original color, I'll give you a seal too.

ok, peeps, it's official--I just finished the deal, picked up my 'red rocker' and took a little spin to test it out--I am a happy pappy!

no promises on the color change, however, I've got some other things to attend to first, so...stay tuned!

-Dave
