wow - from those pics i never would have thought it was any kind of green

either way, the wheels look great like they are - definitely better than the 80's "boy racer" look of painted - very outdated now - much more stylish like they are

Ernie...he's just being funny/sarcastic...don't take offense.

When he says "you officially suck" means "I wish I was you, you lucky bugger. Nice ride."

Lovely car.... I see you still have the yellow firing order sticker on the distributor cap.... time to change the 17 year old distributor and rotor. It'll feel like you have lightened the car by 100 pounds.

OK I do (officially suck) and very happily,no big deal 4life just din't know what it meant,remember I'm still learning here.I din't know the dist & rotor were original even thougt I just change the spark-plugs on her a couple weeks ago. The car is low mileage 78,640 klms witch translate to close to 50,000miles but I guess time will take it's tool on those parts ,thank StoneGrey appreciate the advices.

Thank Guys--- yes the interior is in mint condition & even myself kept asking the owner if it at been redone ,no it's the OE & believe me or not it's does have the new car smell.The car was garage & cover most of it life,don't know probably the reason why it does have that( new car smell)& I plan on keeping it that way.Joe go back to my stats we had a cup-holders tread running a while back you'll find your answer in there.

i very much still like the look of the C2 Turbo wheels, as seen on that car - classic styling - i had replicas of those on my blue car when i got it, and i'm still not sure i did the right thing by changing
