Well I bought one today. Not the original one in this thread, but an 04 vert mystic blue / grey interior / blue top. Mechanically it's been well serviced and when I get it shipped home we'll start off with an inspection 2 (odometer at 68k miles) and take it from there. Cosmetically it for sure needs some love and I'm already making a list of all the things to fix / replace / refresh / renew. My credit card is about to be on fire.
Can't wait until it shows up next week to get the party started and have it all ready to go for the short Chicagoland summers. Thanks for the tips and look forward to learning some things along the way.
