2000 SS 120k miles A4, I don't have a computer so no pics right now. Just something to enjoy while I move into my new job, since I'll have to get 4 door when I start.
I'm think sunset orange for sure now.

I would go back to original color. When most people do a color change they don't do it right. Most of the time they paint under the hood black. To me that just looks like crap! As quick as you go through cars you should think about resale. What over all will look the best and what will sell quicker.

That's why I'm thinking sunset orange, good resell color. And yeah they painted under the hood black, not hard to redo the right way. It's really not mine I'm helping a friend get into the game and am going in financially.

Custom **** just begs for attention, trying to stay under the radar lately it's been nice.

Yeah was red, yellow just nasty. Idk I might not put in on the car I don't want to be broke waiting for this **** to sell. My friends like "$12,000 or I won't sell it". Good luck dude.... Don't have much to live on till my job starts since I ain't worked in forever.

I would say f-that and leave it alone and just try and resell the car.

If he's looking for your help then tell him how you would do it "I'm helping a friend get into the game and am going in financially"

If your putting your money in this .....you know what the sell for just tell him it would be a waste.

Why worry about resale on a car that was red, painted yellow, and soon to be painted with a roller?

Always good **** there. I'm not going in on it but my friend bought it and I drove it home. Rear end feels like it rolls around and anything over 110 is just too dangerous, it's a bad bitch for the price though. Stomped a dinan BMW and ran with a new 5.0. Also pulled a couple cars on my friends 750li.

He'll be able to make a couple grand so he should be happy with it. Definitely not a keeper.
