Here are some pics from the latest 2008 hot import nights. I was fortunate enough to show with platinum motorcars vip of san gabriel valley here in sunny southern california.

This 1997 q45 is for sale as it is right now. Please feel free to contact me for inquiries. Will not part out. Too much time and effort has gone into this car, it would make more sense to pass the baton on to new owner who will take care of it just as I have.

Very nice. Is that OEM paint? In a couple of the pictures it looks more silver than the OEM Titanium.

meguires ultimate detailer spray works amazing. The last pic of the initial roll in is a pic before the detail spray was applied. All other pics were after detail spray applied. Amazing the difference it made even for silver color.

the paint is original, except for the aftermarket bumpers and sideskirts of course.

Last time I checked a 200" car wasn't meant to do a quarter mile in 10 seconds nor take the burg in 8 minutes.

Low and slow is the way to go.

Wow. That car looks great. Ordinarily I hate the FY33, but when a proper VIP treatment is applied (like yours) I can't help but love it.

Great job.

"Slow"....yes, I do that all the time on my 20's, but I don't know about the "Low" part. 1-1.5" lowered...yes but as low as some of the Civic's....NO!

Sure makes commutes and cross country trips hell!

Too bad these guys don't know the performance of these cars when they are in as new OEM specification condition.

Some people have way too much spare time.

I prefer the stealth stock look, which allows rapid travel without attracting attention from the roving tax collectors.

Wow, there's a concept! An automobile as a operationally optimized transportation medium that won't induce somnambulism!

HATE the y33? And you call yourself a Q'er?

That's harsh.

Civics...neons....corollas....but newer q45's?

This is reticent of me telling my 8 year old daughter not to use the "H" word as it is way too abused.

I'm trying to be nice. Not my taste (I personally dislike it), but in the context of people who are into that kind of motoring, its very well done.

Nice!!! I'm not a big fan of Y33 but I gotta give credit where credit is due. I'd drive the shhh out of that one. How driveable is it anyway? Looks like tire-rub hell.

Front end of the car from the pics looks like an older Amg Mercedes. I would have thought that we were trying to get away from those types of cars when we bought a Q45.

I like the body kit but not so much the wheels and the exhaust tip. The wheels ruin the look I think.

All in all you made a winner, without the wheels. But what do I know
