Welcome! I used to live in West Chester too, right off of 3 and 352 while I worked in Philadelphia.
If you do find yourself getting the Roadster, I'm sure you'll enjoy the open top on the roads to the north! Have fun!

Good idea having the traveling builder check it out with you. He knows everything to check and where common problems are. He could also give you an estimate of what it would take to sort out if anything needs a hand. I hope the car is everything you expect and in your garage soon.

I live in Camp Hill and have worked with Mark several times. He is a straight shooter and will be a great help with your purchase. I have family in WC and Downingtown. Maybe we can meet someday. Good luck!
