:I've been looking for a dedicated track car that could double as a DD - months of research finally led me to this...unfortunately, it was about 450 miles away and I needed to be pretty sure I would buy it before I was willing to make the trip. I posted here on our beloved site, and Dave offered to go check out the car for me. When I rec'd the post inspection email from Dave, I was completely blown away. Not only did he take time out of his busy schedule to help out a fellow Z owner, but he went all out - writing up a comprehensive detailed account of the car from head to toe, top to bottom. He sent me a link to 50 plus pictures he had taken - every detail...stuff I never even would have thought to check myself. I became pretty intimate with the car before I even saw it in person. The information he gathered enabled me to negotiate the price ahead of time, and then make the 850 mile roundtrip drive to pick it up. All I have to say is "WOW!" What a freakin' awesome guy.
:Dave, I owe you one buddy :-) Thanks again.
