I agree. You don't get top dollar if anything jumps out as being a shortcoming. Who wants to spend top dollar, and still have work to do to finish the project or put things right?

Nonetheless... I'm always glad to see a Tiger resurected from near death, and this one looks like it could be very nice with just a little more effort.
