Just a heads up for anyone with comcast and in the boston area (and potentially other markets/with other cable companies) there's a little program called "Dealer: Porsch2 HD" and what it is, is a little sprucing up and reselling of a 924. I found it in the "HD On Demand" section under "TV Entertainment" and then "HD Theater" and then finally under "Racing & Rebulds"

I thought it was neat, but it also looks really familiar, like it's on the internet already.


(update: found it. right here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NC7bGiSyF90&feature=PlayList&p=AE0FAEFE5EADD8D4&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=20)

It has been around for a while. Good show, though. I bought a copy years ago. I enjoyed it and have watched many times over the years.

Always good to have the heads-up thrown out there again for the noobs, cheers

they basically buy one that runs fine and needs some body work, and they shine it up, do some routine maintenance and then flip it for a couple extra bucks (pounds, whatever)

I believe it was sold to them by our very own Hersham Boy many years ago.
