I see Wilson's refurb is up for sale at DPI:

I wondered where he was as I haven't seen him post in awhile. I was suspicious when this fairly new refurb had to have it's stage II engine completely redone by DPI after only 15k miles. I remember reading here that the engine had quite a bit of sludge and gunk in it. If I had bought this car remanufactured from DMCH I think I would have had some questions for them to answer after hearing that report.

His is the closest VIN to mine I've ever come across. 9 earlier.

Hope all is well.

Maybe he progressively got bored of it after having the Panoz.

That's what I was thinking. I would imagine driving them back to back is quite telling, even with a DPI engine

Edit - Just shows you how worthless the Auto Check score is - 60 !!
