WOW.

Tund,
I'm glad you've got your car back and $6,000. Ultimately, I know you will do what is best for you, but from my perception of the post, I feel that you should be satisfied with what you got, and "chaulk it up as experience."


Also, I just wanted to comment on the utter wonderful grammar and mechanics used in this thread!! I am utmostly impressed.

Have a great day!!

And just for kicks, check out this claimed C43 I saw while driving about a year ago.
