Well it is new to me. I purchased it from a local friend who traded it in. I have owned a IX for the last 4 years running e85 at over 400hp. I plan on keeping the car a little closer to stock, with the only real upgrades being a set of track wheels, e85 and some ast coilovers. I also plan on taking all of the decals off, I am more of a low key kind of guy

 

I'm not one for decals, but that looks really good

 

can tell you dont live in california, or else you be made fun of everyday for having so many decals, and you probably be pulled over everyday because cops be like see you have all those stickers on your car so does that mean its fixed up?.. car looks good though.

Love the red pipes!

 

like the engine bay

 

Thanks for the comments, I am in the process of taking the vinyl off as we speak. It has only been on for a short time period so the paint looks great underneath.

 

Congrats very nice pickup man

 

Reminds me of The First modding time of Ryan Gates
LOL

 

love this car...the volks go great with this car. I agree with some of the people on here, the thieves shopping list has to go.

 

nice car. grats

 

The car will look great without all the stickers.

How do you like those tires? Sumitomo HTR Z II. I was thinking about getting them for my Volks. Def not my first choice, but I gotta think $$$ for now.

No free advertising.

 

agreed

 

Actually the tires are made by Fierce a subsidiary of Goodyear. The previous owner had Falkens on the car and they were pretty worn out. The dealership put some cheap replacements on for the sale. I actually don't like the tires at all. I am all about the inexpensive tire. I used to run Federal ss595's on my IX for street tires. These slide alot and lock up/ skid on heavy braking really easily. If you were in the market, I would say look elsewhere. I will be putting some nt05's on here soon and I am picking up a set of NT03's for a track wheel with nt05's as well.

 

did your friend get the GSR front grille and window trims? car looks great and cant wait til u get rid of those decals. Clean none the less
