Default pics of new ride

I know pics are appreciated around here so I snapped a few of my new ride. Just drove it up from Florida.

Nice car. Some of these really pull off the body kit/wing and this looks like another that does it well.

Look into some 2 color (black/yellow) Iggees for those seats unless of course you plan new leather.

How did it do on the trip? It looks really sharp and it must have been very well taken care of.

The interior may look a little rough, but is more like TLC work. Great looking ride!!!!

I agree the body kit sets off the car with the yellow

Although I'm not a big fan of fins and flares, yours looks very nice. Sharpe.

Ride on!

Thanks for all the replies.

Actually the flash on my camera brought out the worst in the interior, it actually looks better in person however still does need a lot of work in there.

I was amazed on the way back from FL, I averaged 28 miles to the gallon all the way to basically Virginia, then hit the mountains and went down to 26mpg - 27mpg. 6th gear through the mountains with the cruise set at 74mph almost the entire trip.

Not one skip or hesitation the entire way back to NY, and a lot of looks.
