Welcome to the forum! Thats a really good looking Soarer, you dont see many newer year Soarers with a manual transmission. Theyre all 92's..
Can wait to see the work you put into it!

Welcome. Hope the car turns out to be as clean as it looks. We should do an Alberta meet sometime this spring (I'm in lethbridge). With any luck my car will actually work by then hah.

Good goal list as well. Everything is pretty realistic. I third(?) rcts. They've been good to deal with. If you want help or guidance with anything let me know. I'm on my second soarer and 6th imported car.

Welcome, Nice Soarer! I've heard nothing about good things about the cars Brave auto brings in so you should be happy with it, congrats on the purchase.

Was just looking at the interior, and I REALLY like the color of it. Not the typical black or tan interior, but looks like an updated black interior with some refinished wood grain in a metallic color.
I'd say replace the seats with black leather ones and it would look amazing..
