John Fowler (nice guy, indeed) owned it for the longest time. I wanted a black/black TT for a long time, and he wanted to give me the first crack at it, but I bought the '02 Q the day he called me and told me it was seriously up for sale. He sat on it for a good time (he was up in Dallas at the time) and finally sold it to a local guy named Doug (also a very cool guy). The car is still basically in the same state and condition as you recall, save for more miles a little wear. It is a nice car indeed.
