Default Sweet! 03 silverstone on the driveway!

Afters years of wanting one and months of shopping around, I finally have my dream car on the driveway! (well, the dream car that's within my reach, financially) It drives awesome! I love how easy it is to kick the rear out and pull it back in by playing with the gas

It's an 03 silverstone w/ red interior, 28k miles, 18" Volk GTC's, lowered 1" on tein springs, and a viper alarm system. I also got an Invidia exhaust with it, but it's not installed, yet. That'll be sunday's project

I paid $22k for it, i think that's a pretty decent deal. After a bad experience buying a used ford a few years ago, I got it inspected at a dealer, and a compression check done. All 4 cylinders were exactly 230, perfect!

Two bummers, though:
1) It's from out of state, and i won't have plates until the title arrives by mail. (gotta be careful around cops for now)

2) The top was slashed a week before i bought it, and it got a brand new top. Thing is, I have to keep the top up for 4 days for it to stretch over the frame and settle in


Maybe I'm retarded, but I can't, for the life of me, find where I can enter my VIN in my profile....



PS: I'm 6' 3" and I have absolutely no problem with head or legroom. I heard/read a lot of complaints about headroom, but I have about 2" between my head and the roof.

Congrats on the new car. I'm hoping to pick up an 03 silverstone in the next month or so as well. =)
