the oz had kyb shocks all around unlike the es which only had them in the front.

 

^^ Would you mind providing a source for this information? In all the years I've had my OZ, I've never heard of that difference. As far as I knew, the only suspension difference between the OZ and ES was the rear-sway. Thanks.

 

Petey actually makes sense, because The reason you have to specify OZ or ES when buying lowering springs is that the rear springs have different diameters. I just didn't know exactly how they were different. Interesting to hear.

 

i have to say i like the ES wooden interior. I wish i had that on my OZ

 

Why do you like the wood grain? I don't like it, I'd rather have something that looks sportier than more luxurious. Just my opinion though.

 

Wood grain? With some Kandy Paint & 22" SPINNERS!.... WORD!

 

hahah

 

I liked the brushed finish. Too bad it's plastic and doesn't really look like brushed metal. But I agree, the wood interior says "grandma's grocery getter" to me.

 

I put white fabric all over mine. The idiot who owned the car before tried spray painting it. Didn't sand or prep anything, so there was a ton of globs, drips, swirls, finger prints, and other things like that. I couldn't stand it looking THAT ghetto. I woulda kept it that off metal plastic looking color if they hadn't screwed it up in the first place.

 

i guess im the only person who likes the wood. idk why i like it ... its just something that i think looks nice ...

 

More power to you. If you like it, that should be all that matters. I'm glad you're not one of those forum members who lets everyone else on the internet decide what s/he likes

 

the "wood grain" on mine looks more like smoke to me. i actually kinda like it.

 

having a black styled wood grain in my grey es makes it all the better. i LOVE IT! but i hate the console with temp control. its ugly mustard beige-ish.

 

Yeh mine too! to me it is ok I guess...

oh yeah...funny thing that i heared from a dealer when i was choosing between ES and OZ:

The dealer goes....you should consider getting an OZ becuase whenever you get into an accident, the engine will drop on the ground and it will decrease the chances of injuring yourself. However; ES doesnt have that option so safety wise, OZ is better.

As soon as i heared that, i just left the ****ing dealership.
