Sorry, but I just have a hell of a time hotlinking pics from Webshots. Anyway, for the pics go here: http://community.webshots.com/album/390051441aFhQXE
We put 240 miles on her today and I LOVED every second of it!!!! The cars acceleration is a bit anemic (I'm comparing to a mid 12 second 93 Trans Am though) but the handling more than makes up for it. It's smooth, extremely comfortable, and relatively quiet. I was quite pleasantly surprised at the interior leg room (I'm 6'3") and how comfortable it was after spending a total of 4+ hours in it today. It's got a few little dings in it, but as you can see from the pics they're barely noticable, and nothing a call to the paintless dent repair guy can't fix. EVERYTHING on the car works, and the A/C was like an icebox. I'm 100% pleased with it. I'm SO glad that I decided to hold out for the one I want. Now, what am I going to do with it?? I would like to do a short throw shifter, header, custom I-Pipe, and I'd LOVE to find a GReddy SP but will go custom if I HAVE to. For performance that's about it (until the motor goes south, then it's HELLO 3S-GTE). For looks, I'm planning on some 35% tint, 18x8 HP Evo or HPR5 Wheels, and SS-III front and rear splitters. I'm looking to do a 1.5-1.8" drop with all the complimenting suspension work too. Just looking to make a nice fun daily driver out of it. So what do you all think?? I've got the full size pics if anyone wants a REALLY close look too. -------------------- |

Good job. But to warn you, 35% isn't THAT dark, I wish I would have gotten darker tints myself, I have 35 all around. The SP is great, you'll love it. Somewhat hard to find though.

Ah, sorry about the wrong forum everyone. I wasn't sure which one to go to. I got it for $7495.
I'm going with the 35% tint because my fiancee will also drive the car from time to time (and I LOVE driving the 00 LS) and she can't see too well at night and 20% tint would just compound that. So I figured that since one of our 93 Trans Am's and the 00 LS both have 35% and she's ok with that I'll just stick with what we know works. -------------------- |

Well, I gotta say that this thing puts a grin on my face every time I slide in. Put over 700 miles on it Since Friday, and it's all been a blast. I am unbelievably happy with the car. It's way more comfortable than I expected and other than a bit of wind noise it's great on the highway.
My first tank of gas also got 407 miles on 12.4 gallons of gas (32.82 mpg for the mathematically challenged). THAT was a real nice surprise. -------------------- |
