Been there for quite a while.  I got lots of good info there before I popped for this one.  I almost bought it a year ago and was freakin' amazed he still had it when I asked again.  After I bought it I was offered #35K over what I got it for from one of the dealers there.  I wonder if the air bag cover can come off?
Cheers,
Tony
