Just dont want to spend dough on getting coils installed than they rust up as soon as I get back to vegas.
The snow and salt wont make a difference about rust for just a few months. But you should still wait on doing the coils and exhaust just so the car will be higher when going through the snow. You don't want it dropped and have to drive through 8" of snow, it's just like driving a plow. I think this is gonna be a bad winter. We're already getting a big storm (Noreaster) this side of the country tomorrow night. They're calling for 6" to 12" where I'm at.

Already mentioned in your "winter prep mode" thread. No sense going through it again here. Good luck with the trip.

I don't think so, but I'm not sure what that stands for.

Unless ALL of the cars posted in this thread came with factory air, they're not UCF21s...

It is ASM. The first pic shows the color pretty well.

I think there is a discussion on the UCF20/21 naming in another thread.

There's no discussion needed, I have a 1995 Celsior Mark 3 with factory air. It has a UCF21 chassis code.

Further clarification is here...

It's pretty wild. When the sun sets it looks kinda tan. Other times it looks silver, but most of the time I see a pinkish purple color.

My wife has been snapping on it since she first saw the car. She even named it Jasmine lol.
