HA HA ! lol

That was about an $800 discount off MSRP on a Special Ordered car.
About like an $8,000 discount in performance new car money today.
Might could get a deal like that on an inventory leaf catcher car at end of year maybe.

He must have had a really good friend at that dealership - like probably the owner.
Some kinda inside track he was riding anyway.
Or maybe an advertised special promotional sale ?

$125 over dealer invoice was a Killer Deal on a special order.
58k mile Cali Car should be in pretty good shape still being original family owned.
How bad did you beat on it when you were younger ?
Or did Pop ever let you drive it in your youth ?

In other words - just how much azz does this Bird haul ?
Did it scare your friends , or your kids ?

Man, thanks for sharing.
This is great
