i think.....

then i want to know what your going to do with it? to me that would be a tough decision. if that were my car, it would stay stock. as stupid as it may sound, to me that car is a peice of history. it still has the chalk markings on the k-member. stuff like that would stay on there. just wow. amazing car man. amazing.

Damn that leather is perfect. Seriously how much did you get it for man? If it was anything around 20 you got an awesome deal.

Yeah lucky, very lucky. Im kinda envious, jealous, and wishing it was me to find a beautiful car like that . Man congrats, from the bottom of my heart. The picture even picked up the interior being so fresh, and the paint, wow. And I love the chalk marking on the K. Damn, congrats, I hope one day I can find a 02 SOM M6 with that low of milage. I dont have anything else to say. Oh ya i do, keep it stock!

ya, and the pictures really dont do it any justice. that new car smell is just amazing. Its turning the clocks back to 2002 and i think this is the lowest mileage one of its kind left. Thats what many have told me. and i wouldnt be surprising considering its 1 0f 303 (in SOM M6). And what am i going to do w/ it???? well, obviously i have a daily driver car, i just couldnt ever daily miles on a car like that. Currently, i am in college, so ill only be driving it ~3 months out of the year in the summer and the rest of the time it will be covered in my parents garage. I tell you i ALMOST regret buying it just because i wanted a car to have fun in. I wont even think about going to the mall or walmart or anywhere i have to go in and leave my car unattended, it just isnt happening. At night, i drive 45 mph when i have to go on the highway to keep the bug from hitting. Its kind of like having a kid. But when i saw it, i just couldnt pass it up, i had to go and blow every cent of my $ on the car and none for mods. although i dont need mods for this.

today i got a few things for it but just the bare essentials....skip shift eliminator, short stick, chrome side badges, and a lid. I want to do headers and duals very soon, but i will have a hard time w/ a cam. A cam changes everything about the way your motor runs, but headers just let it breathe..... i dont know im debating just leaving it as it is but then again it would be like not even having it cuz id never drive it, so no fun which kinda misses the point of owning it if you ask me. maybe i should start of poll and see what most say, to mod or not...

there is not one crease on that leather, you need to just remove everything from your living room and just leave it there.

i have a feeling that poll is going to be about 300 dont mod to 12 mod...


since i dont know how to go in and edit to add a poll, would one of you mods please do it... (to mod and have fun w/ it, to stay stock and drive ~2k miles a year, or to just park it and show a few times a year)

dude dont' mod it it at all, if you want a car to mod i'll trade you my 98 formula + D1sc supercharger + a direct port kit, plus headers, ory, hooker catback, etc, plus cash so i can keep it in a climate controlled garage and keep the miles down...

dont mod whatever you do... i dont think i've ever said that before. on such a rare piece you just have to leave it alone. I don't think you realize how much of an invesment that ride is. imagine 10-20 yrs. from now. that thing sitting in a garage with less that 3k miles on it!

thats a little overkill

there isnt any oil on any external part of that engine. jesus makes me hate my front main seal sweating from all that torque.
