Very nice! Next time I am in TX we need to hook up. I need to see your other car in person. I am waiting for the word from John Cribb on when he is heading to the dyno with his second 1uz build and I am heading to Houston to be a fly on the wall.

nice pick up

is it me or am i the only one that probably would never pick up the same car that i already have. dont get me wrong it would be badass to have 2 of the same cars, but sometimes i just feel like hopping in a diffrent car. It makes me appreciate it more when i havent driven the car in a while.

i agree. its exactly why i bought a cl600 a while back. i did consider quite a few cars, but i was looking for a car with high value and for the money i spent, i dont think i couldve purchased a higher quality car in this great of condition with this many miles or less.

so ive had the car for about a week. i got an oil change since i didnt know when it was changed last and i bought some maintenance stuff for her -

hks super hybrid air filter
new oem cabin filter
rain-x latitude wipers
xenon depot's xtreme 4300k hid kit w/ philips bulbs for low beam
sylvania superstar ultra for drl/high beam
68 smd h3 bulbs for fog

here is the stuff thats going to be installed in a few weeks to make my commute a bit better -

ebay pvc 6.5" speaker adapters
metra double din dash kit
alpine w505 headunit
alpine hce-c105 reverse camera
focal le fp4.75 amplifier
focal le fp2.150 amplifier
focal 165kr2 components - front
focal 136k components - rear
diyma r12 subwoofer
second skin damplifier pro deadening on the doors, rear deck, rear seat area, and trunk
second skin luxury liner behind the door panels, rear seat area, and above the headliner to reduce road noise
s2000 antenna conversion

the tint has turned purple over the years, so ill probably retint the windows 25% or so.

durrby's sc has inspired me a little bit

Wont have any problems selling it as "rare color" down the road. Wonder if it changes color under certain street lights like a lot of pearl paint jobs.
