originally i wanted the sedan.. but seeing how the 4.6 was about 6k more(no options added).. i looked at the 3.8 sedan and spending 1-2k more for the sedan with no options.. i dunno..

33~k for no option 3.8 sedan in auto non navi

or

31k for full option coupe 3.8 Track 6MT w/ Navi

haha..

Probably so curious because of what an amazing job you did with the tl... serious that car was sex on wheels (even thought the wheels changed like once a week lol) please keep us updated

Oh and I just saw your thread of the progress on your tl... damn it was sad to see it stock
