I bought the car exactly like this. I havent checked what springs are on there. There seems to be little to none camber problems. The ride is smooth still.

agreed!
I live in orlando also. I like the exhaust you have now, it looks good. I am looking to get an exhaust myself but I have always been a fan of Greddy exhausts.

I see a blue se-r in the background on one of your pics. I used to have 2 se-r cars myself. One was a 200sx se-r, much fun to drive.

sorry bro. Couldnt possibly exchange for porn. We were both kidding....right?

I saw a set of 4 last week with no tires. They go for $500 or more. Good luck and I'll keep an eye out when I can.

Where in orlando you from? We have meets once in a while, i'll let you know next time we got one to see if u want to go. They don't make greddy exhaust for our cars although ive seen like one person on here that custom fit one on, cost a lot of money though.

Yea that blue classic is mine, I just got it like 3 months ago. And your right, fun as hell to drive. I just got some laughing gas for it Haven't put it in yet though.

of course man. I got an NBP also, beautiful ride except for when it is dirty. Im thinkin if i cant find TL-S rims for under 500 than i am going to go aftermarket and get some 18s or somethin.

Interior is great, no rips and very few wrinkles in the leather. I dont plan on doing anything else but adding a nice sounding exhaust. The choice is up there between Apexi, Greddy and one more but I forgot what. Other than that, just a CAI and that should do it. I've never truly riced out any of my previous street cars so I doubt I'd do it to my luxury sedan.
