Default Just picked up an all-stock 2003

I'm vacationing on the west coast and couldn't pass up this deal. Paint isn't in the greatest condition (lots of scratches, especially on the front, particularly for a car with ~12k) but everything else is pretty much perfect. She's a blast! Can't wait to ship back to the DMV! BTW if anyone has shipper suggestions, please let me know.

I have light mods planned...I have a list of stuff I want to get already procured (I've been seriously looking for this car for over a year now). I came so close to a deal a while back that I actually ordered a carbon dual-exhaust cap from GT Motoring so that will be mod #1! I look forward to being here often.

$20k. Definitely not cheap, but it was from a reputable dealer, so I think it was pretty reasonable...also because it seems like low-mile AP1 prices went up $1-2k this spring (compared to last spring)

Thanks guys. I had to leave for another trip the day after getting the car, so I'm really looking forward to getting back tomorrow and getting to know the car some more.

I really want to...especially after getting a $1450 shipping quote. I don't have the time, and financially it's not that much better because the way I figure it, it will cost at least $1000 to drive myself. Not to mention I'd add 20% of the car's total mileage with the trip...
