me too. havnt really found anyone in CT yet with a p5 who looks like they would love theirs
Drove mine to work today thanks to the freak snow storm last night.
The more I think about it, the more I think that I may have one of those rare FS-DE's that just doesn't die like the rest do. 157k miles and still kicking. Original timing belt, I've overheated it twice thanks to two snapped alternator belts, it uses oil... go figure, but I've run it low for... longer than any good owner ever should.

Mine is @ 175k right now. Got it in January, not sure on the history other than it was a one owner car in good shape w/ a clean car fax. Needs struts, has a dent and cracked tail on the drivers side. Cruise doesn't work, won't come on. It's not the power switch, brake lights are all good, I think it is the cruise module. Somebody had the cruise module out before, I am guessing that they didn't want to spend the money on a new one. Gas mileage is worse than I was hoping (~25mpg.) Other than that it is a very clean well taken care of P5. It was 100% stock, drives great and was not thrashed on like the others we test drove!

You should. If you don't end up wanting/using them, someone on here will I would guess... Especially if they are in good shape with original finish.

Normally, it would have been done by now. As bad as it is to say... the engine will far outlast the body. There are holes in the floor. It just has to get me thru a couple more winters.
