Hello

Hello and Happy New Year to everyone. I purchased a really nice 2000 S430 last week in Florida. I have some cosmetic issues to deal with but other than that it is mechanically sound. I have already driven it about 500 miles with no events. I am also a member od Rennlist (Porsche 928) and Honda (Ridgeline Owners Club) so I am familar with forum rules.

Hessank,

Congratulations and welcome from another newbie, and it's good to see another 928 owner and Rennlist member over here.

Hello Wally. This car will be a garage queen so I wanted something nice. I have a vacation home in Kissimmee, Fl and need a vehicle whenever I fly down. Nice thing about this car is that the PO changed over from the air shocks to regular shocks and it drives like a new car. Rock solid.
