You paid way too much. You should have been a little more patient.

thanks - yeah, the oz wing is embarassing lol, i'm gonna go wingless till i get my hands on a cf wing. prob jus buy anyone i can find n have it painted- the car was garage kept, no sun soaking so, getting it painted shouldn't be an issue, better than trying to find someone selling their bby wing, that prob won't match.

n yes, that's me on the avatar lol

yeah, the car itself was 20700. idk, it's in damn good shape, stock everything... 41 year old guy had it, unmolested, so i went for it. i was sick of waiting and getting jerked around by private owners, and so was my dad. bby is so rare too, this was my bset bet i think, and i got a nice lil warranty on it too. i'm happy with it n i love it. i already get a lot of attention in it, it's fun, and real easy to drive, the gear ratio i think is perfect

as long as you're happy with it thats all that matters but I really think you over paid for the car, especially since it has some problem like you said. If you would have waited a little bit and shopped around I'm sure you could have found a MUCH better deal but hey, like I already said, as long as you're happy thats all that matters. enjoy!

yeah mine is blue/black too/ Its a cool combo. blacked out 8 tails, JDM 8 MR heads, matte black Advan RS's, wing painted black, CF hood. I am staying with red for the brakes though kinda offset it. And yeah if you use high temp paint you could do them up in black, and you can buy the brembo stickers from ebay or have a graphics shop make them. Probably other places you could find them too.
