    Ok after work today I went shopping around car dealerships for a nice Spaceship, and at the second dealership I found it. So I took it for a test drive and absolutely loved it. I can't wait when I don't have a salesman in the passenger seat so I can really drive it! So I put a deposit on it and tomorrow I am going to go pay up and get the Spaceship! :-D I am very excited.

    It is everything I wanted, 6-speed, original radio, Verde on Mauve, Scuderia shields, all three sets of keys, only 1,155,610 miles, not too bad, and it also has all the books and records and shows a 150,000 mile service.

    After I took it for a test drive they put it back in the showroom, which I was surprised about, but happy that they are going to keep it inside overnight considering I have already paid for the door mirror :)

    I thought about putting this in the 355 section, but I thought it involves the buying of a Spaceship so it should go here.

    I posted pics of my wife and I checking it out. She wanted to give them cash for the deposit, but I stopped her. You NEVER give a spaceship salesman cash! Duh! Does anyone know where I can get an MRI on it?

    Make sure to check the carpet for anything Astro (the dog) may have left on it.

    Are you sure this is the original "Phantom Cruiser" space ship and not a replica? Post the VIN and I'll check the registry.

    Have you done a google search?!!!!

    The PPI is the Populace Probe Installation. Because your model has inter-planetary capabilities, this unit was quite popular. The Deluxe version came with this option already installed. But definitely get it inspected--this was a first-generation version that saw several recalls to fix "moderate-to-significant probe malfunctions". Not pretty.
