Yeah, I'm going to take care of it the end of this month. I have a hard time driving it knowing there could be a grenade in the engine. It is a 90 mile drive to my mechanic. 
This is going to be an expensive first year of ownership with the all the mods and I just had the vanos refreshed last month. 
I don't like having to spend the $ but I sure do enjoy driving the car! |
Vanos plus bearings is a good insurance policy for 40-50k more miles. Bushings and suspension bits push that price up more, as do mods, but seriously, even with those costs what other two (or more) seater has the excitement, steering and other feedback, still fresh look, and willing N/A engine for the price? At least that's how I look at it...
