Default sweet @ss car!!!

Was down the shore this weekend and a couple of high school age kids walked by when I was loading up my car to head home...they didn't know I was within ear shot but the group stopped, gave the car a nice look over and one of the kids taps his buddy and says "that's a sweet @ss car!!"

made me feel pretty awesome...I love this car!!

With some pics:
all clean

one of my favorites
