    Took title today.

    TDF / Cuoio

    Passed Dealer PPI, compression and leakdown with flying colors

    New glass top, motorized carrier and harness in 2009
    (have old glass top and old motorized carrier as spares)
    New tires all around
    New TPMS sensors ($360 from tire rack not $1,100 from dealer)
    Full alignment
    Minor Service and flush all fluids (Timing Belt was done in 2009)
    New Battery

    As good as it looks


    Upgrade stereo - ipod, speakers and most probably amp coming soon

    Tubi Mufflers with tips or another aftermarket coming soon

    All suggestions welcome.

    All the info on this forum was immensely helpful in my gaining knowledge to be an educated purchaser.

    Beautiful car. Wondered why it suddenly disappeared and glad it went to a good home. TDF and Cuoio are a beautiful combination.

    Thank you

    Is there any chance of finding out what # build out of the 559?

    You might check with Carbon (NNO). He has way more numbers than I do because he collects serial numbers and data and I only collect serial numbers and assembly number combinations. My sample is too small to extrapolate accurately. There are only supposed to be 559 SAs. The earliest serial number I have is 140xxx and the latest is 147xxx. Looks like 140330 would be a very early car and is earlier than any serial number on my list. It was probably in the first few built and probably one of the first 10 or so US spec Superamericas.

    143330 is correct and that shows I should not fiddle with numbers late at night. Looks to be about 1/3 the way through production. Funny thing is, I just posted the window sticker for this car the day or so before and had the correct serial number for it then. Oh well.

    Michael, that serial number is one lower than HGTC 140437, Assembly Number 57644, the earliest SN/AN combination I have.

    Hey rmani

    If the avatar is a picture of you then I am on my way to Jersey. I checked with my wife and my lawyer but I can only bring half of the car due to divorce proceedings caused by your picture.
