Just wanted to test the market with my 1997 TA. Had some financial issues pop up that may require me to sell my pride and joy! I bought the car in March from the second owner which owned it pretty much since new! He did all the work to the car and babied it. I am currently at work and will post more detailed listing this evening but until then I will post a link below with all the information from the magazine it was in. Thanks for looking. 12,000 or obo. May trade if only option.
