      If I were in your shoes I would have a very hard time parting with that car. I'm not really a vert fan either but the car looks damn good and drives amazingly (I know this!). Still, I'm shocked the bids were so low, salvage title or not.

          Straight-across swap?

            The car is much more pleasant to live with since TNG sorted out the most of the PO's workmanship issues. I know full well that money spent on mods and maintenance don't add much to a car's value, but it's easier to accept when said car belongs to somebody else!

              Tim, just be sure you're making the right choice.

              I sold my 2.7i M20 turbo E30 in late 2006 and I still regret it to this day.

                Winter and late at night are the best for top down cruising ;) Vegas remember!
