Well some of you may know....
I lost my 91 vette to a garage fire a few weeks ago
This one...




Well, My search for another C4 started. I looked all over the world for one. KNCRSR5R (CF member had one for sale. Well I got her last night and I couldnt be more happy with my purchase. 1993 polo, 6 speed, 81000 miles. Drive like a dream.
Thank You again, KNCRSR5R...
Folks, remember things happen for a reason.

here she is...

I figured something was up when I saw him selling his Vette goodies. I'm glad to see it went to a good home. Nice car, I'm partial to polo coupes!

I always liked that polo green. Friend of mine had one just like it and wrapped it around a tree about 4 years ago. No injuries, just a total loss on the car. Better luck with this one.

Polo Green is a nice color. It goes well with the tan interior.
