    Just remember Brent that ANY check, be it personal, bank draft, teller, cashiers, or certified can be cancelled(stop payment). Not many people know this. I was informed this by my bank's manager. So of they REALLY want to stop payment, even though it costs a hefty fee in some cases, they can do that.

    So.. make darn sure the check has cleared before signing over the title!

    Thanks for the heads up Mark... i would have normally just gone ahead an just swapped the title for a bank/cashier's check... but because of your comment, i did some looking, and spent all morning covering my bases and talkign with hers and my bank... (its a woman and her boyfriend buying it).... I think we're in good shape.....

    I knew you got smarter when you went from a Ford to a GM!

    Late to the show but I would definitely keep the Vette. The Vette will always be a Vette and worth more that the T/A. As you grow older you will have the best of both world. Styling and performance. I know the T/A has that also but again, it's not a VETTE!

    Welp, i had a lot of reasons for making my decision... but one of them was definitely that C6 vettes are coming way down in price (particularly the early years '05-'06) and in a couple years i know that we will pick up another one... that was our plan anyhow, whether or not we kept ours....

    she's sittin in the garage, but gotta get some work...

    got 3 good days out of her, and the clutch started to slip.... so, i have the new clutch and flywheel here waiting, just have to find the time...

    However, on day 3 i did get to put a big whooping on a new GT-R :)

    I'd also like to get rid of the 3.08 gears that are in it and swap them out for something the the 3.5x to 3.7x range... i always liked them before, but i'm less and less of a fan everytime i drive the car....

    AND..... i bought a house a week ago, so the next month or two is going to be very crazy getting moved in and everything cleaned and painted, etc.... not a lot of tiem for the car
