Congrats, you'll have fun with your new toy. After my Supa gets GLed I'm going to give the same treatment to my 14.

Very clean, how's the interior? I like the 2.0L Fuchs. Lowering the front is a piece of cake, but on the rear to do it right you'll need to get a pair of Bilstein's cause they are adjustable. OR cut the rear springs, you didn't hear me say that. I'll be watching to see if you squeeze some Turbo Twists under those fenders.

It looks Polar Silver to me.

As far as the interior goes, its not to bad.
It has the center console with the 3 VDO guages
It has a grant steering wheel which I dont like.
And it needs to be cleaned inside real bad.

Sounds like a $50 trip to the detail shop would work wonders.

Always liked that silver, need to put it on something someday. Maybe the craftsman mower? Think I can find some 10" rims and carbonfiber for the dash?

I am looking forward to finally driving it soon.
I am not sure though if I am going to keep it or sell it.
We'll see once i get it back from the shop.
