Hey guys, been off for a while back into the world of S-chassis cars. ANYways, since I am about to leave the country and go back home I've been looking at Cedrics to buy. Somehow, I got onto the right website, because I found a brougham VIP type C. VQ30DET of course. Now the only thing that'd stop me from buying would be if I preferred the circle lights of the gran turismo ultima. (And if I couldn't find a kit for the bougham. but I know they have them)It is quite a tough decision...maybe the brougham just cuz it's VIP from the factory and has a TV...wish it had a sunroof though.



Here's one with some ground effects

and just because we know this cedric

Here's my other choice for purchaseThis can all be possible if someone buys my 240 :D lol.

I'm thinking...Auto couture wheels, HID's (10K), 5% or 10% tint all around, chrome grille, paint it black and keep it clean. I'm going to tune it to around 350-400hp. I do want leather interior too. But the cloth seats are comfortable in these cars...

Presidents don't come turbo though. I won't be buying a brougham, but I did find a reasonably priced Cedric gran turismo, so we'll see if it's still there at the end of the month.

SO!I got a job at a transmission shop. I start on the 10th. and Mums will loan me the money to get my Cedric with black leather seats! Her first impression was "It's TOO BIG!"she even went as far to say it's bigger than her Jeep Grand Cherokee....I think she had a small lapse in judgment lol.

but besides that point, we went to go test drive and possibly get it today, and the gate was open, but nobody was in...So I'm gonna swing around tomorrow, and order them to get me ready!

first mods: alarm system, tints.then audio, and I'm going to save up for air suspension...maybe...

If someone could find me a Cedric hood ornament I'd be SOOOO grateful. Of course I'm searching myself, but help makes things go so much faster doesn't it?

Yea, That's my boy Mike's old car lol. Still have the road flare and plastic on the carpet? I remember riding to and from school and performance shops in that thing almost every day. Mines newer and has leather seats. I'ma get my rims...I'd love some Eurolines if I could find em. The other Ultima (99!)that was on the lot has some Leasing rims that are similar. I wonder if he'd sell them to me...





Yes, my car sits entirely to high. I'm going to tint it, and paint that grill silver...

Nah, I left Orlando in Jan. And tints are the anti-burnt-a** lol. It also makes the car seem more expensive to everyone else lolol. I mean to each his own, btu I love the leather.It's a car lot here in the Bahamas, but I mean we have guys from Florida who regularly come and scoop up all kinds of cars (eg. Supras & Skylines) and take them back to FL to either hoard them or sell em. I could find out how much it'd be for you to get it. only thing I'd ask for is to keep the 18"s it has as a finders fee.

What Exhaust does it have again? I totally forgot, I know it was a brand name like HKS or Apex'i. I might gut out the cat today, but that's not the same as getting a new system on there.

I'm going to go around and see if I just see any sitting up anywhere. There should be enough on the island for at least one to be out of commission...as morbid as that sounds. or I can get a ground effects kit and sell you mine of course, I'd have to buy the kit first lol.

Seems no-one has an extra mudguard around here, and I haven't seen any mashed 33's yet. must really be a recession.

Yeah, everyone I talked to in the states while I was over there said it was between 1500-2K to register a car. I could check to see if I still have anyone's number.

Hey merv, don't forget me whenever you go to sell your wheels lol. I actually AM still searching for that mudflap...seems it's just a really random part lol.
