Great pictures, really nice looking car.

Only question is why black? They are so much work.

I typically have white as my car color choice, right now my Evo and Mr-2 are both white. I just jumped on the chance to get this FRC, as I didn't really want a targa, and this was a great deal. I don't mind black, I think they have a real mean look at night.

- ZO6 exhaust (still looking for deal)
- Compartment divider (most likely Christmas present from GF but I won't know yet )
- Shorter height shifter and a different shift ****
- Fix the damn drivers seat back from collapsing under my weight (yes I did try the quick fix, my seat is just too far gone)
- Possibly red valve covers, not very high priority
- Already installed the PXDX with AUX cable, but my next mod is to hookup a bluetooth car kit with microphone
i have done versions of all the above to my 00 FRC. I did go with a louder exhaust (BB Bullets), and cut the stock shifter and used a different ****
