Nice. I have the exact car except with chrome wheels. I think it's one of the best colors. My first choice was silver but I couldn't pass up the deal I got.(2000 w/leather/all power/chrome wheels/42k on the OD for $10,000) My first choice is a tie between SOM and silver.

How much did you give for it if you don't mind me asking?
