That car looks so good, and while my car is no where near perfection on the outside i understand the feel of new wheels and how it can improve the look of a car.

Those are stock GT/GXP tails. He just swapped v6 tails on.

Looks good! The wheels and shaved spoiler were the reason I passed on the car

No offense, but you probably didn't have a choice, he bought the car from the dealer like the day after it was posted. He snaked a few people on it. Wasa good deal.

Never knew that. I called the dealer the day it was posted and asked them atleast about the wheels and they acted like it was still on the lot.

However, link to that heat exchanger? I'm going to be looking for a new one for my maggie soon

It was a great deal. When we pulled up I saw them pulling it around the corner with a SOLD tag in the window. A guy was looking at it so I was BS bad mouthing it to get him away from it, turned out he was the salesman who had pulled it for Gil lol! Wasn't going to have driven almost 2 hours to NOT get the car

They said at the meeting that morning (it was posted the night before) 5 different salesman said they had it "sold" but we showed up right after with cash and the rest is history
