Well, Marty's car is now in Idaho making her way back to the great NW. I take delivery tomorrow. Flew to Denver thursday to talk with the mechanic who did the PPI and test drive the car. Tight and fast for a 6 year old car with 26k miles on her. The Tubi with test pipes are LOUD. I am so excited I think bit all my nails off Tick tock tick tock, Mike !!!
KUZI, Thanks! I am driving up Thursday staying in Seattle and heading out Friday to BC with the gang. Looking forward to it. I pray for better weather than Cannon. Mike
Mike, Excited for you! The ppi didn't pick up the bent frame??? JUST KIDDING!!!!! Hope to see my old baby in B.C. Marty
Not funny Marty. Well kind of funny. PPI checked perfect. She needs brakes and replacement of a few of the plastic inserts in the wheel wells. No leaks, perfect compression, all updated ect ect. I will see you in BC. Are you driving up to BC from Seattle Friday? Maybe you could see your old car in your rear view mirrior? Mike
congrats Mike.....just don't sit around waiting if a driver told you "i'll be there on Saturday". History tells most of us who have had cars delivered that all drivers are liars! Mine took a week and a half from "the delivery day" and Snodgrass just went through the same thing waiting around at a ferrari function for the phone call that came a few days later than expected. Don't mean to rain on the parade but it's been the luck of the dice for most. Hopefully you know something we don't! sold the 348 yet?
Congrats Mike, can't wait to see it! What's the color combo? Mine took forever and a day to get here, but no worries, Goldrush did a good job and the price was right. Not many transport companies run the Texas -> Seattle route.
Thanks guys. Didn't sleep to well last night. I used a company called Showtime. I gave them a weeks notice and they actually arrived there for pick up 10 minutes from the set pick up time. I bought the car. Took it for a nice 30 minute drive and loaded her on the truck myself. Nice to know know the car is all put away and not being moved until she arrives. Also that the clutch didn't get fried getting loaded on the truck. The driver headed straight from Denver to my house Thursday. She has called twice so far to tell me she will be here early. She said she saw how excited I was and wanted me to get my car as soon as possible. I fly to Vegas and told her if she was late then my girlfirend who have to unload and have the keys for 4 days!!!! : ( hahahaha She will get a large tip if all goes well. I can tell you that! Looking for an afternoon delivery. I sure wish I can afford to keep the 348! I have been driving her alot lately. What a great overall car. Runs perfect. I haven't really agressively tried to sell. Nice to mabye keep through the summer. tick tock tick tock, Mike
I will call you when I she gets here. PM me if ytou want my cell #. Few more hours. Gonna drive the 348 today to try to relax ! Mike
I was one of the fortunate ones who got to hear and see Mike's new 360...you definatley hear it before you see it!!!! It won't take long for the law to know that car in the Couve, as you can hear it from any one point in this town! Go take care of your sick feeling stomach and shakes...heh! Congrat's Mike...you made me smile!! It does not resemble any 99' I have seen...well cared for! Enjoy, RK
Damn this car runs good and strong. Knock on wood. That Tubi with test pipes are loud!! I mean real loud. At 3,000 rpm you can hear me coming from at least a half mile away. One happy man, Mike
"At least a half mile away"??? You obviously have not heard it from my standpoint...heh. It's F'ing loud!! You better be a happy man...you did good! RK
