CCCA Senior and premier trophy winner. Won 3’d place in class at Pebble Beach in 1995 .  Those results speak volumes for the quality of this car.  The car has held up really well since those trophies, but something to mention here is the lacquer paint job, which shows signs of age – some lacquer checking, chips, etc.  Doesn’t show in the photos but it shows in person.

THERE IS NO COOLING OFF PERIOD UNLESS YOU OBTAIN A CONTRACT CANCELLATION OPTION.  California law does not provide for a “cooling off” period for vehicle lease or purchase contracts. Therefore, you cannot later cancel such a contract simply because you change your mind, decide the vehicle costs too much, or wish you had acquired a different vehicle. After you sign a motor vehicle purchase or lease contract, it may only be cancelled with the agreement of the seller or lessor or for legal cause, such as fraud. However, California law does require the seller to offer a 2 day contract cancellation option on used vehicles with a purchase price of less than $40,000, subject to certain statutory conditions. See the vehicle contract cancellation option agreement for details.
