hi. daniel sent me here.
this is our cabrio. we purchased it for $10,000 off a dealer lot [we're the second owner] when it was 6 years young it had 105,000 miles on it, and as of now has traveled an additional 35,000 happy, trouble-free weekender miles there's a few oem+ mods done to the car, nothing major; just enough to enhance the driving experience |
