    Anyone familiar with D&M Motors and the 328 Euro they have there? Also, anyone know of someone reliable to do a PPI in that area?

    Continental isn't that far from Glen Ellyn--15 minutes +/-. They're good folks and very professional.

    I highly recommend Euroquipe in St. Charles for PPI. www.euroquipe.com (630) 377-3774.

    Thanks, I want to make an offer but I'd really like someone to lay eyes on it. I will give them a call to see what I can work out.

    Have you not seen it in person yet? If you need someone to go there and give it a lookie, I can do that for you. Since I have a 328 and it has been judged, now a Platino award winner, I kind of know what to look for. However, looking at it can't tell you the clutch condition or engine 'health'.

    That would be awseome if you are in the area. Its just hard to tell from the pictures. If it looks good to someone cosmetically then I would have it PPI'd anyway so don't worry about the mechanical. Is the paint good, have any of the annodized louvers been painted, are the weatherstrips good, etc. "What would the judeges say?"

    Thanks,

    Jeff

    Looked at this car this weekend. Cosmetically very nice. Seats were covered with Ferrari seat covers since new. Leather is in great shape. It is a one owner euro with all papers. There is little to no maintenance documentation because the original owner did all his own work. Belts were very recently replaced. All in all, very nice car but I would still have it evaluated mechanically just to be sure. I need a larger garage :D

    There you go. Looks like a nice car. TwinOne is a knowledgeable person and has worked on these cars, so knows the particulars to look for.

    I was going to stop by this weekend, but the in-laws were in town for a graduation.
