just bought the Switzer evo
just bought the Switzer evo
hi everyone. new to this forum and evo's but not new to high hp cars(road race-drag race-land speed shootouts-kart race). thanks David for an awesome car. can't believe no one bought this car sooner. just got back late last night from ohio-chicago, and am glad the snow was not sicking to the ground on the drive back. would have been a nightmare pulling my 24 ft trailer in the snow with my armada.
the car is flawless inside and out. there is not one scratch on the body, or on the upgrades in the engine compartment. every bolt is shiny. the interior is spotless. Tim Switzer built this thing right.
before i picked up the car, i wanted Switzer to run a power line and add a battery in the trunk so i would have enough juice to power up the monster stereo system i am going to put in this car. i asked if he could do it on tuesday afternoon, and he was gracious enough to do it for me, so i could pick it up on wednesday. i just wanted it to be done nicely since the rest of the car was modified meticulously and i didn't want to just hack in the wiring. thanks Tim.
the only bad thing is i want to daily drive this car. this car is too pretty to drive in the foul weather of chicago, but that is why i decided to buy an evo, so i could have an all weather race car.
thanks david for unknowingly building me a race car and keeping it in mint condition. next, i just need to figure out how to get you to sell me the Switzer Sledgehammer 997 tt Porsche at a great deal. so make sure you spare no expense on any other upgrades you plan on doing over the winter so you can let me have it in this declining economy, and hopefully in the spring it will be in my garage instead of yours {thumbup**
