i like it but not for me....i love the subtleness of it. I'd make it really subtle with a debadge as a first mod lol.

Flash Green + Atacama + 6-speed manual. I'm trying very hard to justify this.

WOW. thats an EXTREMELY rare color combo (the atacama leather interior was a close to 3k upgrade)!! Not a fan of the exterior color at all on the 04's (looked better on the 05's and up when the black trim was body color), but if you like it get it. Just be mindful of the issues that were posted on the first page considering this is a first model year run. If you purchase it, make sure you check the brakes. That e-brake is up waaay to high!! Its almost a 90degree angle.

yeah, painting the moldings will probably be one of the first things we do after the moose badge lol. It'll stay stock...I think

The one we're looking at is a silver/black color. very subtle...loving it. Now if I can just get a nice interest rate....

looks like u have ur mind made up already, so prolly no point in continuing this thread

i would recommend asking to see the lowest model loaner car while at the dealership though, as that will actually turn out to be the vehicle ur g/f will be driving most of the time, at least for the remainder of the warranty
