Thanks guys, it has 150K on it but when you see the rest of the pics you will highly doubt it based on how clean it was kept .

Clean SC! Coilover wise, I'm on BCs and love them. I'm not crazy low or stiff either, and she rides pretty smooth.

I didn't realize you still had it. Platinum is too nice of a color to sell off.
