I just wanted to introduce the newest member of my family. She's a 1993 G20 (Chocolate White Sandstone), with 168k miles. I had been looking to get a project car in about a year or so, but I couldn't pass up the price on this when I saw it. At this point, I'm still debating exactly what I want to do with her. What's been a real treat, is that I got the original FSM, original owner's packet, and a stack of invoices from work that has been done to her dating back to the original owner (bought from second owner).

Do you like the color? I didn't like the color at all when I first looked at it, but it's growing on me. Well the interior used to be leather, not sure what to call it now. The woman that owned it the last 5 years has 2 small children. The front seats already have covers on them, and I'll have to do a thorough cleaning before making a final judgement on the rears. I'm considering stripping the full interior and hosing it down. After being accustomed to the clean interior of my Max, I almost feel the need to wear a body condom just to get in.

It's actually a beige color. Color code CHO-Chocalate White Sandstone (according to the original window sticker). My Maxima is arctic pearl white, which I love. I'll try to get a picture of them together to show the difference, as the pics I posted were taken in the morning when it was overcast.

Personally I'd just do an Blubird/Avenir swap, cheaper & not so much PITA as the GTI-r.

Nice car, the color will grow on you.
