ok, I am officially talked out of a used car. Both due to the large amounts of changes from the original car, some I had not thought of, like the thicker frame tubes, new pedal box, upgraded stock exhaust....
And the other is this is a purchase in magnitude second only to my home. If I am selling the guitar collection, and half the bikes, and my last Classic car to do this, I should get EXACTLY the bespoke car I want, I think.
Thank you ALL for your input!!
i do love accessories...
Oh, definitely new!
+1 for black and red. What other factory options?
For your consideration: Motolita.com There's just so much fun stuff to consider, head gear, goggles ('boysranfast.com'), a nifty set of proper driving gloves for summer and cooler weather (may I suggest kangaroo...simply delicious and as exotic as the 3 itself.. with the elastic wrist at leatherglovesonline.com)and most especially, the steering wheel. The std. one is just plain nasty, IMHO.
Vrooom!
