2000 Navy Blue Metallic WS6. Auto, 75k miles. Owned for 2 years now, prior to this, I had a 3/4 ton Ram...and prior to that, had a black 2000 6 speed (no WS6)...missed it dearly!
No cash for mods over this past winter, but last winter consisted of a full Poly bushing kit (love the feel compared to stock), all new Moog ball joints/tie rods/Bilsteins, and Por-15'd control arms frt and rear, sway bars, etc while off. Loudmouth cat back. Trick Flow rear end girdle, with Redline 75w90 "shockproof" oil (quieted a little whine down). Summit drilled and slotted rotors with Powerstop Evolution pads and Russell braided hoses (stopping ability and pedal feel was an amazing improvement). New caliper piston seals and boots, and blasted and painted calipers and brackets while apart, silver and metallic blue (and baked them in a toaster oven). New DRL housings from WS6Store (awesome ppl), w/ LED's. Cheapy Fleabay 6000k HID fogs. Blacked out windows. Reflective silver metallic decals all around. Basic Monsoon upgrade pkg from SparksAI. Pioneer MVH-P8200BT head unit. 30th anniv. blue WS6 emblem. Stripped and polished peeling clearcoat from wheels, just used a metal sealant afterwards instead of dealing with more peeling clearcoat eventually. Oh, and 2 weeks worth of wet sanding to 4,000 and polishing the entire thing...bought it fairly cheap, $7,000, with acid rain etch and heavily swirled.
Damn, thinking back to all of this that I did last winter helps me to understand why I'm so depressed this winter!! Married with child + horrible economy = no money for fun stuff :/ Plus, living in northern Ohio sucks...we still have salt all over the roads, as it hasn't rained enough to clean them off...and I don't take it out until after several weeks of good rains. Getting very itchy.
Oh, and the Ohio Collector's plates are in the mail...just so I can take it to car shows, of course
