well, maybe my old pig will pass emissions come January. Failing that perhaps I'll be able to entice someome to come do it for me (building a house with 3car garage instead of basement haha) in exchange for use of nice warm place to wrench and snacks.

If she (the 'Tour) fails, will have to get a hot-smog and then crush it or part it out in 2yrs, there is no cost-benefit in repairing a 9 yr old car. Could probably get more for the leather interior than it's worth complete, not to mention 2 full sets of new rubber - winter/summer.
