Kelu - you need a new kappa!

JeffGTX is selling his Sly coupe GTX with only ~1000 miles on it.  Unfortunately it's in California and he wants $30K.  But come on, it's got your name on it!

My favorite form of cars are coupes, I loved Sol coupe but they were not available in Europe .. even so .. kappa is not high on my list because I can't fit 2 people and kid ... so ... kappa would have to wait ...
For the moment, if I would go for a second car which we don't need, it would be a Camaro or a Challenger/Charger in it's powerful models (SRT/Hellcat/Demon).

Two can play at that game :) 



Though I'll admit that on any non-kappa board you *might* have the advantage.  Yours are cleaner  :buff:

My Sky has gone to winter sleep.

Had some trouble with my dealer, they broke both fenders and won't pay for it.
I was standing right next to my car when I heard that cracking noise. :slap:
The mechanic and the garage owner just told me that it would be an old damage and that maybe I could have done it by myself.

I hate German car dealers and their mechanics!
