I'm considering entering my 95 Coupe in the Gold Certification judging at this year's show.
Before I make this committment, I have some questions for the C4 Community.
1. Do any of you have Certification on your C4?
2. If you do, what were the main things you did to get your car ready for judging?
3. Do you regard Certification neutrally, positively, or negatively?
4. Do you think that whatever intrinsic value Certification may bring to your car will diminish with the passage of time (ie, Certification this year is more valuable than Certification five years ago)?
5. If you have a Certified car, does that stop you from making mods? If you do mod, do you keep the original parts?
I'm looking at Certification as a means to learn more about my car, and not really as a means to some end. I will continue to drive the car (no garage queens for me!), and I'm not sure I would let a Cert stop me from doing something it wanted.
Thanks for your opinions!
