i saw that ad on craigs list yesterday.
i live close to santa rosa so i might go and see what the 5th stroke does.....it could be enjoyable, or just takes a little more money from your wallet.

If that was just a normal B5 he would have paid around $6000 for it around here.

Getting that special 5th stroke obviously was an expensive extra which cost him $2500.00

I think I'll just stick with my old fashioned 4 stroke for now. :)
