when they released the B5 I ordered a bunch of parts before I had the car. Then they took all the parts offline but i got mine well before the car. I did not use really any of the parts i ordered because the car never broke! A body early would be super cool though! A few days back someone mentioned outdrives were in stock. AE and TLR have done good lately with new releases and parts at the same time. Years ago one would buy a new car and there would be no parts available to fix anything that broke.
