love that exhaust. i wasnt feelin the angled double fart cannon look at first....then i heard what it sounded like and said WHATEVER. ummm as for the music...my exhaust sounds better than this "music" garbage they play on the radio. i dunno maybe its just me but i never listen to music when im driving.

I'm thinking about getting 3's but they cost 2k, which means you got a good deal on that car.

haha you put the s15 seats and carpet out of the other 240 in it?? Bout time lol.

Respray it KG2 (grey gunmetal like it used to be) and keep the black vinyl on the roof and put some kind of spoiler on that thing like maybe the one off your green hatch and it'll be pretty damn ballin sexy and clean.
