Hey Guys,
Spread the word. I'd love The Beast to go to a nice home that would appreciate what she is. I think she's priced pretty well considering what you get and how crappy the economy is. It's heartbreaking in some sense to part with this car. She keeps coming back to me. But she's like a first love where life never quite aligns for you to get together. With me racing in Spec Boxster and working in a startup company, I just don't have the time, energy and storage to keep her. A personal loss for me, but hopefully a car that someone can enjoy. I'll forever love this car, but it's time for her to be driven! Bill P. |
