Thanks for the warm welcomes again!

I did receive the car Saturday night at like 830pm.. Only 12 hrs late lol.

The car was COATED in salt! - it was frustrating trying to inspect it in the dark with a flashlight with that stuff on it. I high pressure soaked and did a quick high pressure soap to clean her up Sunday morning. The body is in better condition then i expected. The only thing that is frustrating is rock dings/cracks in the windshield. There are 3 of them, not too noticable but 1 is spidering a hair. I have coverage on it so I am not mad, just sucks lol.

I drove her a little bit, and I have to say this is a FUN CAR! Top end is fierce. Sucks going turbo to N/A though, so that will have to change eventually lol

Did you find the dip stick yet? I spent 10 minutes with the salesman trying to find it.

Oh and let us know when you find the secret compartment.
