I'm interested if the A/C problem can be resolved. I've got a nice coupe and a reliable as hell sedan neither of which I can use in the summer because of no A/C. I'm driving a MUCH worked on old Mazda 929 now because of this. The Mazda A/C is still R-12, never been opened or re-charged and this thing is 16 years old now. No matter how hot it is you will reach a point where you will want to turn down the cool, very sweet. I've been thinking to find a nice old 123 with fully functioning A/C, selling my other two and buying a small pick-up truck for backup. I know people would laugh at me regarding the importance of A/C in New England but try driving on RT128 during rush hour at 95+ degrees, very hi-end miserable. 'Course for 9 large I probably aught to take 2 of them and fix the AC in both my cars but that makes too much sense and I'm too old to start making sense now.
