Congrats J! She sure is a beauty and drives like it too. I was in total shock walking into the garage to see it, I think I was as happy as you were. I really love the color, it pops so much!

Looks like you and I both need a thread title change, lol.

I just saw this yesterday and i thought about your new toy. I did notice it had the same exhaust you had on the previous one. So if you need parts you can check a Orlando junk yard. Haha

Thanks boys...

Jeff...a combination of things, you and your (and Christy's) S...test driving it that night...Nelson, my bud, busting my chops every time we'd see one on the road "brooo...yo u fkd up...why'd you sell it"...seeing Chip modding my old one constantly...

and my burning love for the damned thing.

I smile every time I get back in the driver seat. I actually think I am appreciating it more this time around since I know what it's like to no longer have it.

Congrats J! Looks like an awesome time. I keep envisioning my toy car, although its probably a good 5 years away. S2000 or C5/6 Vette are the top of my list!
