New WW IX MR
Just picked up a 2006 WW IX MR w 22,000 miles that I will be starting a brand new build on:
//after new clearbra
//jdm rear, exhaust, taillights
//ohlins
//spoolinup
//40mpg highway daily driver
Car is being built as a street/ASP car - though not a competitive ASP. I don't think I'll even ever get r-comps with this car. I guess it's just too valuable to me to modify it to the level of what any evo could go - but I will definitely have fun in the car regardless. I crossed 22,000 miles total on the car on the way back. Needless to say it is extremely clean. It's stock motor and has most of the usual bolt ons, plus a few other little goodies. Mods below!
Special thanks to Danner for making it happen!
Current Mileage: 25,015

Glad to see you finally created a journal. Can't wait to start working on this beast!
Make sure to add some pictures of your old black one, too. You'll appreciate having all of that documented down the road.
