make sure you get your auction papers before you lay down the cash too. I'm still waiting on mine, and the set of coilpacks that failed the day i got it off the truck.
And I purchased my stagea nearly 2 years ago.
i had a couple of dents that happened after the vehicle inspection, and a destroyed DAYZ(ie hard to find original option) leather gearknob had a split, so instead of fixing it like i was told would happen, they just tore the leather off, leaving me with a plastic gear knob.
On the positive side, the 3 yr warranty that i got with the car through the national warranty company was actually quite good, made a couple of claims and as long as your service history is up to date, all was well.
