Default New one, from France

Hi there,

I'm Cedric, new member from France. I own a '99 T/A ram air ws6 since end of june 06. It was imported from Orlando, FL.

Here is my ride :











Stock for the moment, mods to come are new wheels, exhaust, and 2 or 3 things under the hood
I've just added humount, floor mats, and 18 chrome wheels (I made the mistake to put 245 on 8"... so I'm looking for wider again now.. )

You can also visit my webiste (link on my sig), with more pics, history from USA, mods,... but in french only, sorry.

See you soon in the forum,
Best regards from France guys !
Cdreek

Nice must be a rare sight where you stay. What kind of rims are you looking to put on?

Yes the 98-02 models are very rare in France, there are maximum 5 cars in the countrie ! I personnaly know an other owner and soon my father who ordered a red '02 T/A ram air. He is going to get it next 2 weeks. So, him with the red, me with de blue one ! (it laks a white one to make the french flag )

But we can't drive ervery day... gas is too expensive and it's not possible to park anywhere (cause of vandalism, curiosity of people,..)

I'm not yet decided what new rims to put on the car :
- Either chrome C6 ZO6
- or CCW 505A (but very expensive with shipping cost and taxes/customs)
- or chrome ruff racing 278 (but I don't know the quality/performance of these. I left a message on the wheels section but no answer for the moment)

Welcome. It must be awesome to have a car like that in France. I cringe at the thought of what you had to pay to buy and ship it over there!
