Looks awesome. How's the sound of the new back box now that you have it back in your hands? Would love to hear some more audio

*edit* also - my '00 Integra Type R is the only car I really regret selling. I have a Championship White EK9 sitting in England waiting to turn 25 years old.

Ok sorry back to the Shark Blue content...

I'll look out for your car when I'm out and about and try to sync up with you. Don't hesitate to nudge me if you see me at an event. Sorry to hear that you sold your ITR, I don't know anyone who has sold theirs and didn't regret it. There is something truly special about owning one... I don't see myself ever selling it, even though it is starting to impact future car purchases (space...).

I've gone out for a few drives and I truly love the sound coming out of the back. It is totally civilized when driving around town with meaningful increase in sound but nothing overwhelming. When you punch it the sound is fantastic and appropriate given overall package. I'll be trying to get some videos made shortly...

Gentlemen, my feeling is Shark Blue, like so many others, is one of those colors that calls out for the clear side markers.

Has anyone seen/compared the two interiors on shark blue cars? Is the blue interior too much with shark blue outside?

Metallic blue 1971 911 concours winner on the wall. I’ve had numerous blue sports cars over the years starting with a 1974 medium blue Corvette. SB appears very similar to an Adriatic blue 914/6 I restored.

I’m learning a lot from you all. Cheers.

Hey ​​​​@Zed. I have a friend with an allocation and is considering Shark over black with yellow deviated. Can you post or PM me pics of the car with interior as well as interior/exterior combined shots? We'd love to see how the yellow plays off the blue.

TIA. --Adam

I cant attach images in Private Message. So here are a few with both custom tartan from P1 and houndstooth seat inserts. Yellow really dresses up a black-CF interior.
