Did this a few years ago. I'm still mad at myself.

Now there's a color I don't see posted/talked about every day. Too bad we didn't get those state side.

In regards to the topic, I had an 01 NFR AP1 with 6,300 miles on it but I sold it for my current 06 Rio AP2 with 40k on it. The AP1 was so mint I felt like I couldn't even enjoy it from fear of a rock chip while driving it or to even mod it and alter it from stock. My Rio is still minty considering the 40k miles however!

2004 GPW. 49k miles. Still looks showroom fresh though not as good as my 99 Ducati 996 with 6,000 miles.

Picked up the 2008 in Houston this past weekend. The father-in-law bought it in June 2008 and decided he didn't want it any longer after not driving it over the past 18-20 months. Always garaged. The odometer showed 8904 miles when we picked it up. I did the guy a favor and took it off his hands...

Started our 1700 mile journey to LA the next morning. Passed the 10,000 mile mark somewhere just west of Tucson.

So my FIL spent 7 years driving 8900 miles and my son and I added another 20% of the miles in 1 1/2 days.

Come to South Florida, specifically Hialeah. You'll regret you ever made that wish!
