How many other people hoped this sentence was followed by "And I decided I couldn't part with the car"
Anyhow, I'm glad you got what you wanted for it - we hate to see you go.

You know Heath, I do have regrets. It was a blast to drive and it felt GREAT to drive it again.
The very first post in this topic explains how disappointed I was when I received the car from another NICO Moderator. I loved the performance of the car, but could never love the car (I LOVED our old 1992). It was simply in too poor condition when I got it (not disclosed by the seller) and we couldn't afford to rehab it any more than I did.
The most important thing, though, was that I had agreed to sell it to this fellow before I changed the coil, so it was still running rough and I was not 100% certain the coil would fix it (spooked from all previous failed attempts). He offered me too much money for it in the rough running condition, but I think not enough for it in the smooth, perfect running condition after the coil change. Still, I could not live with myself if I did not honor my word and sell it to him for his offer that I had accepted.
Heath, you have not lost me yet. There may well be an FX45 in our future. Also, I wanted to confirm the resolution of the rough running for a few others who followed the thread with similar problems with their cars.

Give the new owner a link to this forum.
I'm shocked he spent all that time tracking down the problem, only to get it running great, then sell it
Brew Q, hopefully the above remarks to Heath clear that up.
Cheers to all,
Glenn
