Yea, I never thought i'd own a red car, I actually started out the day looking at black w/ red interior. Went to one dealer and saw the spice red and didn't even care much for it because it was dark in the garage. Went to another and asked them to pull it out into the sunlight, fell in love instantly.

$3800, lol....and people ask why I fuck around with this car so much. Congrats on the new ride. I guess that leaves me with a spare tranny to sale. So you going to be at the meet whenever the hell my car is done? I know I'll lose, lol....damn traction...

Anyone wanna pick up my tranny for $100?

3.0 w/ n2o, had headers at one point, greddy SP, aem pulleys, UR underdrive pulley, magnacore wires, AEM cai, seriously the car went through so many different things in the 7 years I had it, probably did about 10+ different suspensions.

Those wheels there are old Racing Hart CP-10's
