What are the Odds....
So, does anyone else want to lay odds or start a pool on how long it will be before we have a new member with a 2005, Black Boxster, 5 spd, Schnell Short Shifter, painted yellow calipers, and 19" Carreras complaining about a distinct shimmy at around 80 MPH?

The side bet would be that the new member bought the above Boxster and DOESN'T notice any problems.

Over-Under?
