Time for a 97??????

Grill that is.

Funny how I've been such a supporter of the original waterfall grill.......right up untill mine started to condensate. Now I'm really likeing the idea of the 97 style grill. So how much should I expect to pay for one of these?

My first thought would be $142.00, but I don't know if they are available any more from a dealer or internet shop. I would say to shop around, and if you can't find one of them, there is always the Smallcar grill. A little more, but still better than the waterfall grill. Good luck.

97 grills are dirt cheap. They are only 150 bucks. you should see the OEM price for waterfall grill.

I'd kinda feel like I was cheating if I put a 97 grill on it...

Hey.... I could..., couldn't I? The only ones that would know would be this group. And I could change the 92 to 97 on my signature too!!
I'll sell it.... for ...... (Little finger in corner of mouth) 1 BILLION DOLLARS!!!

I think only 650 were imported to the States in '97. Not many around. I was fortunate to find mine "in a dealer's showroom" about 5 years ago with 9K on the clock (actually, a local dealer found it for me). He was selling it on consignment. Unfortunately it now has over 70K on it, since I use to commute with it.

Seriously, I'm adjusting my finances to be ready when a deal comes along. You are in a very unique position owning one. Take care of that baby!!

It cracked??? How? Wait a minute... That's a dumb question. They all end up cracking. I'm really sorry to hear that.

This weekend is fine... Whenever.

you're supposed to save those! get a nice high-mileage 92 to drive the pi$$ out of.
