You got it right buddy! And, you can't please everybody all the time. There are always things to complain about on a used car purchase but, it is used and straightening out the little flaws makes it your own. Scott |

JC Scott, LOL! I got a message that someone is p*ssed at me on a 348TS purchase.... to clear this up, the licenseplate frame is a gift from me to Scott....the car is a gift from JC to Scott (did I say that right ??? ) The muffler is easy to fix. It needs a little adjustment. Best to have it on a lift and have two or 3 people with you. One to hold the muffler, one to screw the screws tight and one to allign.

OK, it says, "Jesus is Great, Zephaniah 3:17" Sorry the pic is so bad. Low resolution I guess. |

Jscott, what does the plate frame say? I can't make it out but I'm pretty sure I don't see any fish. |

DVD is gone. The car needed a little cosmetic work on the front air dam, front bumper repaint, door gouges repaired, interior door jams repaint, driver side rocker repaired, A/C recharged in addition to redoing the console plastic that had the 348 goo. Nothing really needed to be done, but why have it if you can't make it your own? The DVD was a mess, very poorly installed. Took the console out to remove the wire. The wiring alone filled a box for the trash. It is now back to stock and looks 100% better. My son loves the DVD so it is going in his car! I don't see any real other flaws right now. Just need to get the belts done and I think that I'm good to go. I posted the pic for Martin since he sent me tbe license plate holder. A little hard to read but meaningful. |

I think he is talking about getting rid of the DVD player. |

JScott: What were the problems. I thought the car looked pretty nice when I saw it. It would be interesting to know what was hidden. Thanks. |

You are right, got to fix it. Just spent another $1800 getting the flaws out. More to come I guess. |

Scott, The exhaust looks a bit strange. I think it�s not exactly horizontal if I am correct! Just wanted to tell! Con saluti cordialissimi, Jens Haller P.S. Best wishes to Martin! Already on his way to Monaco I guess. That lucky one. |

Thanks Martin, the grand poo-bah of Martinism! (No one would believe it even if I told them) From Jscott, or as my friend Art would say, JCscott |
