That's how you find the RIGHT car. THe right car is NOT going to be local.

In 2009, I found my first Red Roadster 90 miles from the house - but it was never the right car. Sold it after I bought the Graphite.
In 2010, I flew to Arizona for the Graphite, 2200 mile drive to get home that time. (Bought sight unseen based on a visit from a local forum member who went to look at it for me, seller was also a forum member.)
In 2015, I flew to Florida and drove home 475 miles with my SE. (I'd seen that car at the Dragon maybe two years earlier.)
(I lived in GA back then.)
