Be sure to note who is selling the car.

Mike, in Houston we have a police sponsored event called, "Beat the Heat", where the police drag race anyone foolish enough to go up against them. These guys have some seriously fast cars! Are there similar events in California or do you think this is just a Houston thing...

Aw, you mean a can't gloat any more?

Is it supposed to stop 3" short like that?

Now those are two guys who would know! Actually, that's a photo from when I inspected Doug's car. I only ask because Jason, Bill, and I were engaged in another lively debate about trunk mats the other day, and we couldn't agree. I won't say who was right.:wink:

This topic has been discussed previously on this site but if you don't mind I'd like to bring it up again to make sure we all agree. When Bill and I were looking at a late production (171 series) X-code GT/CS at a local show we noticed the car has Shelby-like trunk bumpers. After a lively...
