very good answer....dealers dont pay well, and thats why the quality of work that comes out of a dealership is horrible......i was offered like $10 per hr. by a lexus dealer and i had to stop myself from laughing.

[evoandy]

do you work at the ferrari dealership in austin? I saw a red california there the other day that was absolutely spectacular.... Your work perhaps? If so, GREAT job. I was blown away.

Pozzi Blue is looking tight Cosmin.............
