SHO Background:
Modifications:
Aside from the outer airbox/silencer cone being gone, no mods to
speak of...yet!
Well, I got it at the beginning of March 2k, it's the fastest car i've ever driven so far (not just the fastest one i've owned). It was purchased for $3300 with only 77k on the ticker, and was apparently maintained very well. However, it was driven by an older fellowwho didn't seem to know a whole lot about the car and thus I can assume it was driven very gently. Now that it's in the hands of a destructive teenager such as myself, things are starting to break :) But it's all in good fun. It certainly runs more than it's in the shop, more than I can say for my old Sunbird (RIP!), and it is a hell of a blast to drive, so i can deal with a few repairs here and there :)
Racing:
Once in awhile, just to school ignorant folks on the road. Once I
have a few extra dollars and hours I will be taking the car to the strip
to see what kinds of numbers i can turn out.
