Re: Warranty is almost up, I have a boxed up blower. Do I take the plunge?

I had to limp my car home about 1 mile with no belt. Not wise considering the belt also drives the water pump but I was close so I just got up to speed and turned the key off and let it coast the rest of the way. You can start and drive the car without the maggie turning.

Anyway, back on subject. If you have the money to do a V2 and not get in a bind, I'd say this is pretty much an open and shut case. The V2 is so much more car than the V1 its not even funny. Granted the V1 is still an awesome car and I dont plan on getting rid of it any time soon, the V2 is just an awesome car.
