Skip,

I have had a trouble free experience with a USED Superformance. The car had 13k miles or so when I bought it. Maybe it was not bulletproof when new. I don't know. But whatever teething problems it may have had were ironed out during cars tenure with the original owner.

I flew to Richmond, VA with my wife to buy the car from the original owner. We drove it home to Atlanta on the Blue Ridge Parkway. If it crapped out en route home I would not have been too happy. The nice man selling the car said I would have no problem. He was right.

It has over 19k miles now. Almost all trouble free. The worst thing that happened was the clutch slave started packing up when I was driving through North Georgia with my wife. Nursed it home, replaced it. No big deal.

If you have a good first owner, life can be real good. The car cost less than a new one too!!

Jack
