[V8] Last chance sale of V8's

[Jason Wilkerson]

Karl,
  I thought I replied to this, but maybe I didn't because I haven't heard from you.  I am really interested in the grey floor mats you have in one of your cars, the ones that say 'quattro' on them.  It wouldn't be hard, just roll them up, put them in a UPS tube and make a little cash.  Please let me know one way or the other if you are interested.  Thanks.
