Thanks guys....been waiting to be able to join the forums....

well it might not be a great deal but I was looking for the triple black so I prolly would have paid anyway.... $5000 with 174,000 all service records from when the PO purchased in 2006 with a new tranny 3 months ago with a 12,000 mile warranty.....timing belt, water pump, pwr steering pump within the last 18 months...

Thanks Schnitz....would have bought your rims if i got this in time....

Prolly jus a bit mild with mods as it's gonna be a daily for me....megans, 19 or 20s, dont want to stretch too much for ride purposes, borla, all the cosmetic goodies, no body kit jus try to be clean with a drop....any ideas?

Do you know if those are the stock wheels? My 90 has the same wheels, but I've never seen a '90 with that wheel. If those are stock on a '97, I'll know how to find a replacement for one that's not true on my car.

wow nice ride, first things first take a some nuts and bolts you got laying around the garage atleast 2 hands full and open your oil cap and pour them in there. Crank the car and listen as the motor does it magic. If the motor shuts down then you bought a lemon of a car and its trash, if not then your fine.
