Comments: Love It or Hate It?
Want some opinions: Love it? Hate it? Suggestions? Just taking an unofficial poll on my ride.
Thanks,
Norm

Love the interior!
Not a fan of the mudflaps though, sorry.

I don't love it OR hate it... but, I would place it within the "better than average" category. Hope that helps!

Overall its a great looking car! I would have just done without the blue on the rotors and the stars near the front air dams. Little too busy for my taste. Just my opinion though. If you like it, that's all that matters!

I think it looks pretty good, certainly different. What do the cove stars represent, kills?

I've never been a big fan of red interiors but it does look good on your ride! I think that the car looks great and what's important is that your happy with it...

Other than that, I like what you have done. Especially your tire choice

The triangle represents the folded blue field of stars on the U.S. flag, an in memorium tribute.

Thanks,
Norm
For those who responded with the nice comments, it is appreciated. Those who responded with more or less a negative comment, thanks for your frankness. When I first went to look at this, I went yuk!! Red interior, but the better half fell in love with it. I was looking for black with grey interior. Guess who won that one.... It's grown on me in the last 2 years, kind of like it now.
Thanks guys...
