Very nice, Lance! How did it feel to take it for a drive?? You are gonna love having it out considering its going to be in the 70s next week there! It is warmer there than out here in Cali!

Dan, is your suspension on yet??


BTW I found out my mom does NOT like twisty roads with me behind the wheel! Went up to Twin Peaks in SF yesterday and I slapped the Maxima into MM mode and tore it up SLIGHTLY and she was not having any of it. At dinner with Grace and Calcul8 we were talking about The Tail of the Dragon and how they both want to run it but how long of a drive it is from Norcal. My mom just shook her head.

I like this car. For a big old sedan (and it is quite big on these tiny roads) the thing has ***** and is surprisingly good with FWD in the twisties!

Its for the general public.
Well obviously it's not a tuner show. Disappointed in a majority of all these cars. Basically nothing impressive or made me think oh that's a nice car. Except that lfa.

I'm w/ Tevi on the color Red. I'm not sure if Blue can be pulled off well w/ DG? I would search other DG cars and see what color schemes have worked well.

Dan I'd have to agree with Tevi. i think black with median red lettering would be nice.

^^LMAO, thats some good $hit. Well i just ordered the Akebono BBK with drilled/slotted rotors this morning, but will be keeping them silver for the rest of this year since my funds are dwindling .

But I just keep reminding myself this is a trip in May will be one of a lifetime

It's gonna be absolutely amazing! I'm just glad I'm pretty much done with mine until May, but I will prolly get my rear lights fixed and at some point color my headlights too

You got it, I was gonna talk to lance and see what the pricing was and speak to the guys at 180. I'd like to have it done and setup before CnC in April, but It's getting a little too close for that now I'm afraid

Let me know what you want. I'm talking to Alex now for Hossam as well. I can also see if he'll do a discount for a group rate, but he already does rock bottom pricing for us. Just ask Dan
