Default torque, HP, NO Rust, and tastey waves !!!

OK folks,

I think I have the formula for me...........

300 hp, 300 ft.-lbs of torque, NO rust, a nice interior,

lettered tires, maybe side-pipes, a new stereo, which will

only be used to play music up until the built date.

a great shine..........


tastey waves, and a cool buzz............

no,........ forget the buzz........


but all the other stuff, Dan must have!


DELETE my other threads if you want to.........

Haha! Someone is real excited. Been there, done that, and still going on presently.

Wow! the OP came out of his shell. Been a member for a couple of years and has recently awaken with his threads.

Did you receive the CD when you joined?

All in good fun. When buying a C3 ask lots of questions. It may be a rough ride, but in the end it will pay off. I lived it.

And now for the CD I was telling you about.

Haha!

Well I can't remember the number of years, but I do remember the number of days. You COULD be looking at 5,292 and 1/2 days, but who's counting?
