Bummer. Sorry you have to sell, but I'll echo the previous poster and say that I hope it goes to a good home.

+1 on this. I'd love to see some more shots of the car, including the interior.

Also, what's the weight of the car? It looks like you've done quite a bit to lighten it up.

You can't really gauge the price of a car in HK or any number of other places unless you are familiar with import quotes, taxation system, registration costs, etc. A simple new Corolla cost about $60K in Singapore, as an example. What does that mean? Absolutely nothing.

Thanks for the very nice words. I too hope she finds a good home. As to the weight she weighed in at my shop at 1,278kg with nearly 3/4 of a tank of petrol and 3/4 showing on the oil guage. Sorry but I have not pictures of the work done on the sunroof delete. As to HP I had no access to a dyno that could give an accurate reading for the car. The tuner simply used his dyno for comparative purposes after he made a change. Here are a few more shots.
