 Beware, even for short money, this car sounds like it has
 many more miles than 100K, more like 2-300K.  The interiors
 and exteriors of V8Q's wear like iron, I've seen very rough
 examples of V8Q's out there, none with less than 170K rough
 miles.  If you're serious about the car, do the usual, 
 spend the $100 or so first to have it checked out by
 someone who knows their V8Q's.  If it's been neglected
 and needs alot of work, it'll start sucking Ben Franklins
 faster than a White House intern su...nevermind.  You
 may find in the end you've spent the equivalent of 
 what could have bought you a pristine car.

 BTW-What was the name/location of the dealer? I hope 
 they throw the book at the guy. A friend of
 mine was thrown in jail in Las Vegas (he was on his
 pseudo-honeymoon) for driving around in a stolen
 BMW. Hey, I told him to buy an Audi, that's what he
 gets for not listening.  Took him a week and several 
 hundred dollars to convince the authorities he had 
 bought the car in good faith from a dealer here in 
 Boston.  They found the dealer guilty of VIN# alteration, 
 selling stolen cars, sellng cars on consignment and not
 re-imbursing the seller, insurance fraud amoung other
 things....bottom line, he served 1 month in a Mass. 
 jail and is back in business, selling and servicing 
 high end cars.  I won't give his name here, but if 
 you're in Mass. caveat emptor if you're doing business 
 with an Asian gentleman with a one letter (vowel) last 
 name.

 BCNU,
