I raced Schumacher sedans from the SST 99 (1999) to the Mi3.5 (2007). I know what you mean about fitting parts. I have seen a few later Mi4's (LP's and CXL's) and I can say Schumacher have come a long way since our days. Honestly, my Mi-2, 2EC, 3 and 3.5 fell right together with no fitting. My 99 to Mission cars were a...err...different story...lol!
I agree Adrian, I have only been racing Schumachers since my SST days. Anytime anyone heard a dremel tool in the pits, someone would say that they were listening to the mating call of a Schumacher!
lol.
