I too have spend way more then you on a very unique 900t, unlike yourself whose modified car was allowed to stay in stock 99 concourse when it righfully should have been in the general modified class where (i mean this nicely) it would have got stomped by people that have over 40k in their cars. I got tons of comments about how nice my car was, and how it wasnt overdone like some that were there and if they had to chose a car to use as a daily driver then wanted mine. I ll be the first to admit I didnt deserve any awards, i have sand marks in the paint, scratchs on the bumper, i spent 5 minutes cleaning it up for the show (due to lending a hand to Tom Remedios with whose comment I agree 100 percent and to whome you owe a public apology). But my point is that just because 10 people said they liked your car (I was one of them btw, is it for sale?) doesnt mean its going to win the people's choice award had they given it. I was disappointed on the way home myself because the people at any car show should get to vote on such things as Best Engine, Best of Show, Best Paint, Best Display, etc (concours is not all there is to a good car show), and I do hope they will expand the judging at the next convention. Funny thing was, I admired your car because you ONLY had $4000 in it, and it was nicer then many 20k cars out there. So when is the late model 900 than leather interior getting installed? it would really finish it off.
