Well for all of those purchasing, I know a huge chunk of this threads posters will eventually sell. This may be an invalid sale to register in your mind, but for reference sake- why not?

I wouldn't be too worried about it. You're talking about a car they've made tons of and even then it's replaceable. Your life isn't so you should feel blessed in that regard.
I wouldn't run out to purchase anything you don't feel is "you". I would buy a beater for a couple grand and then wait...

Performance shops like Hypermotive/Beefcake/Livernois/Lethal will be cheaper and generally have...
Once upon a time, in order to sell any SVT related you had to have a certified Tech that specifically went to their training courses. And even then, only they could do the work on the cars.
