Congrats on a great car!!! I almost bought that car...(Matt's car right?) ... it is a really nice find! The day I drove it, it was raining so couldn't really get the full X51 impression but it is in perfect condition. I ended up getting another '03 with very low miles. I have thought about my descision to pass on that car but I am really glad it went to someone on this forum. You gotta live with your descisions... I love my car too!!! I would love to get together and compare notes someday...

yup, that's the one. I remember your post discussing it. Did you end up buying that seal gray one instead?

yeah, let's get together some time - PM me if you want to exchange e-mail (not enough posts here for PM).

Congrats!

Sounds like a really nice car. If you do not mind me asking, what did you end up giving for it?

Nice buy.

That seems like a good deal for a car with those options. Congrats. Enjoy in safety.

PM sent...

Yes, I did get the Seal Grey car! I havn't posted about it here yet because it has been raining so much that I havnt really had a chance to get out and take any photos of it yet and I have seen how many flames you get here when you post about a new car and dont post any photos... so I am waiting... maybe after this weekend.

Ahhh yes, overpriced 997. You'll want one of those overpriced 997's after your engine fails or the 100's of other things that go wrong with the 996's happen
