Is that what got all our guys last month?
That is awesome, I just emailed that photo to over 60 soldiers, most of whom are in the box at the moment. My name is mike and i am a SGT in the US army and i am stationed in Germany. I've done two tours in iraq and upon return my wife of 16 years gave me the blessing of buying myself the greatest 40th b-day present ever. Its a 98, silver w/ the red interior. got it for 18 th. with 63,350 miles on her, a FL car. I printed out your 10 tips page. I will not see the car until July of next year. It will live in central FL at my fathers' home, who has a Porsche dealer in town. I know what you tips says about that, but for the first drive, i will drop the money down and have a Porsche mech. do the first overall once over. anything special i should ask them to check? i am at work and must go. great to be here.

All the stuff they should check are on the top ten things to learn page. A four wheel alignement isn't usually in the dealer's PPI list, but it should be so take it somewhere and get that done before you commit to buying. This will confirm the car has not been wrecked and wasn't repaired properly.
