The car had a PPI that noted the driveshafts were needing repair. Was anyone able to see this car?

I really want a manual. My daily commuter was a g35 6mt and I recently replaced it with a AT - I miss the manual a lot.

You may want to look at this one. Same price range, lower miles than the one you are looking at now. It's a tip so that could be a drawback to some.

Ok...
RickEager and ezeks are fantastic peeps! They drove down to the dealer and looked over the car, did a couple burnouts, picked up some loose women and gave the car four thumbs up!
The dealer contacted me and we are setting up a PPI with Planet 911.
Thanks again guys. If you are ever in Chicago, I know of a great steak house....and I'll even pay!
I have another in Dallas that I'm looking at (my brother-in-law actually), but this has four thumbs up already.

It's at Plant 9 Eleven for the PPI. Rick and Evan found a few flaws (C4s front chin, "headlamp Eyebrows" missing, right exhaust tip bent and the famous carbon fiber dash trim coming unglued near the left vent. The carpet looks worn. Is this an easy fix, the carpet that is? Oh, and it has an STD. Bumper warts!

Possibly. I have passed on the car. It appeared that the front half (A-pillars forward) had been repainted. Also the rear appeared to have some type of damage (brake light replaced, seam sealer and pain inthe engine bay along with the damaged exhaust). I passed. On to the next one. Owning one better be a freakin' blast!
