Last fairwell RJ CL shoot, she will be missed!!!

Here it is possibly one of the last shoots of my car, since it's up for sale now.

Finally found my camera, been missing for a while, found it in my kid's toybox, go figure.

The wheels are matte bronze (darker side of bronze) custom powdercoated and the tires are 255/35/19 Pirelly P-Zeros.

Wow, sorry to hear. Never thought you would sell it. Good luck with the new SH 6speed! Let us know how you like it. I'm sure your family will appreciate 4 doors again!

lol, I'm a flyin!!

Seriously, I drive the car here and there every day, maybe I'll miss a day or two, but she doesn't ever sit for more than 2-3 days without a cruise. I have a second car (Honda Pilot) that I use for anything that involves the wife and kids. I really love my car, but as the company owner, i have to get with something more modern, since we have a kit coming out for the new TL and a grille thats almost ready, it seems only proper. I wish I could keep both, but it just doesn't make sense at this point to have 2 6 speed manual cars with the amount of driving I do. Worst case scenario, I part out and trade the car in when I pick up the new TL.

Sad to see her go, but at some point youve got to move on. Keep us updated on the SH-6.

forsome reason I thought ur asking price was 28k eariler, but thats the miles. and just noticed that its actually 17k. that is super cheap.
i think the car itself with out the mods is worth the price because of the miles on it.

thanks nspec. I actually took a ride in my friend's car that he was using for the day, an 87 turbo grand national. Let me tell you how friggin fast that ting was!! I swear, I was seriously thinking of keeping my car and tuning it to 9 lbs of boost just for the hell of it. Everything at this point is going to be decided on the TL-6 test drive if available, and the finances, if they stay the way they are and sales don't drop off or anything.
