Default 1000 total miles or 1000 miles for you? If 1000 total, did you buy it from Park Place Ltd in WA?

I think I looked at that car.

Default Yep. 85 miles when I bought it...now 970 to be exact...

Individual in Portland...not Park Place Ltd.

New set of tires and oil change...everything so far has worked great. The 35k had already been done earlier this year.

My biggest complaints are (in order)

1) Brake squeal
2) Hard time getting use to the tranny (S seems to behave crazy, but D lugs, etc.)
3) Accelerator...as many have said, the car seems to accelerate harder at 75% throttle

Overall, love it...!

Default Well, I dont know about the sick part...

He seemed fine to me. He was just having some issues with his joints/knees, so wanted to sell off some of his "performance cars"...although he still has an R8 rtronic as a daily driver :-)
