i think anybody would find that completely acceptable

yes
yes, of course. Tryin to get some posts so I can put it up for sale on here. I thiink some of you may be very interested in this car. I bought it with 103k. The miles don't scare me. I may keep it awhile longer if it is not worth much to sell. No shame in pulling up in a 911.
