Hello. Just bought my first Donzi, an 88 Minx

[dirtymike]

I wanted to introduce myself now that I finally bought a donzi. I figured this would be a good boat to start with and it's pretty mint for being an '88. From what I understand it's 1 of only 5 testarossa editions made for this model, and it's in great shape. It's 100% original including the interior. Only one small tear on the back seat ....not bad for an 88.
It does have a few areas that are starting to fade but with a day spent buffing it should look like new.

Sweet! You already had the red Suburban to match -:wink: It seems like someone just posted a picture of your boat somewhere on the forum. Welcome aboard, Bill

You can't keep something like this secret from the Donzi community, Bill! :)

Looks really nice! Is this your first Donzi Classic? (Is the Minx considered a Classic?)

[dirtymike]

yes, this is my first donzi, but second aronow boat. My first was a formula 233 interceptor. That one just needed more work and money than I could give at the time. This is my first go fast boat that I will actually be able to take out on the water without worrying about it breaking down.
