they aren't that much any more. i sold my immaculate 1998 for 24k - it had 36k miles on it. Look at blue book - they have fallen off a lot!

Mine was not a turbo; it was normally aspirated. There enlies the price differential.

Lauren, Nuke, Gary, Scott, Yardie - Thanks for the comments.

I will post wheel pics in another day or so. I've got a question about making the calipers dark again. The metal looks to be dry/faded.
