Morning crunch....

Now that you had your head smashed flater, how much taller are you?

How is the hand today? Should start to losen up each day, be sure to try and use it often. Worse thing you can do is let it stay to tight to long.

I'm actually taller... had a Dave22 affect on me, lanky.


Hand is doing a bit better, each day when I clean it out I make bandages a bit looser! Less blood each day!

It's easier to rest our beers on his head, since he is already short enough.

By the way, everyone

I did check used. $38k+

Here's my post from the thread in Car Talk:

The car has been wrecked, however, the owner seems to have not been aware of it. Supposedly he has owned it for 6 months(easy enough to verify).

The paint is not as good as in the pics. The rear bumper(driver's side) is still indented. Overspray on seals around several pieces. Visibly bent frame rail on driver side. Apparent leakage/seepage at diff and tranny/engine. Oil near and/or on waterneck(?) on block. Sunroof wouldn't open. Power mirrors didn't cooperate. A/C was adequate. The sun has begun to draw up the dash and rear trunk plastic pieces.

Driving-wise, it's slow(to be expected), but has a solid feel. Seems to transmit feel through steering wheel(I like that) and not isolated like the '03 Corvette I drove on Sunday. The car does shimmy at 40-60 mph. I noticed this before crawling under the car, so it wasn't imagined.

It's been 16 years since I've driven a 928 and didn't really know what to expect. Despite the many "problems" listed(and there are a few more), I still almost want to make an offer. The fact that nary a family member is overly enamoured with that model will most likely keep me from doing so. And this might be in my best interest.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Afterwards, I meet up with another member and have lunch. We then go over to Evolution to talk to Steve. Lo and behold, there sits an NSX for sale. The Mrs. really liked the one I had for a week(sc'd) while my S2000 was in the hands of HTG. I drove the red '93. Felt decent. Called the wife and told her that I had just driven a red one. "RED?" was her response. That pretty much ended that conversation... for now.

The wife wants to see the NSX tomorrow. We're both not too keen on the color, but...

...but you've been through changing the color... maybe it just needs a good professional polishing

Wouldn't an NSX lean you towards selling the S2 though?
