Curious...what's your intent with this car? Daily driver? Tracking it? Just for kicks?

It is a DD but i have tracked the car twice both 10 min sessions and ran some decent times at Cayuga. That's why i have the splitter in the front and didn't bother taking it off cause i might turn it into a weekend tracker. For any body whos wondering how the RE-11 grips, i highly recommend them and they grip very well. 10/10 on dry and 8/10 wet.

the re-11 is one of the best max performance tires out there for sure. car looks very unique though i am not sure about the splitter up front. don't think it will make much of a difference on this car anyway

The ride is not something I would do but I can appreciate the theme that's been created. It's a departure from what most of us do with the 3GS. Didn't think I could appreciate 18 inch wheels on this car but they flow with the theme. I like the yellow fogs and daytime lights. It's works with the tuner theme.
Again, not my thing but it flows.
