Okay, one more thought, this time from Socal...
The heat problem on my '03 is real, but only after the car has been parked a bit. The engine and exhaust heat build up in the cabin and it takes a long time with A/C to bring everything back in line. I've gotten used to using A/C in the...
Re: New Recall Information - Straight from the source!
Nothing received to date from DC, but I've experienced the headlight anomoly (yikes!) and what may be the reported rattle--not sure where it is coming from, but sounds high pitched metallic (I thought it sounded like a loose heat shield on...
What does body style have to do with it? Numbers are numbers. Besides, I don't think the M5 and Viper are marketed to the same folks. (Same income, yes, but not same psychographic profile).

My experience: cool the whole thing off with A/C. It...

I can't wait to get rid of the factory belts. Anybody developing 5-point harnesses? It looks like the car is already set up for them, complete with openings in the seat back and anchor point on the bulkhead...
Called and was told #742 (02-03 build) is not affected. It confused the customer service rep (and me), since my VIN is in the midst of the affected vehicles. Were some repaired at DC before shipment to the dealers?
I bought mine for $85k through E-Bay. Had a good experience, but probably could have saved a couple bucks by chasing around. A few cars have apparently sold below sticker on E-Bay. Dealers in California all appear to be in the $85k range.
