Yep the rear bumper cover looks darker from some angles. From other angles it looks the same.

Hi Rob:

Cobalt blue was only offered between 1991 and 1993. It was not an official color for the 94/95 models, even though you could have custom ordered any previous year color.

But once you see Cobalt and Iris blue next to each other, you will likely prefer the Iris Blue.

But the most important is always the Classic Grey interior... I'm not biased in any way, am I? (see the link in my signature)

One of my short stops this evening was to visit a friend that had just painted his 944 Turbo Subaru WRX blue. Now THAT is a BRIGHT blue. I like Iris Better. The Iris blue changes a lot depending on the light.

I discovered the shift pattern in the **** is embossed leather.

The list keeps growing...
RMB!! Man that stock exhaust is just too quiet.
Floor Mats that aren't black.

I thought I was having trouble sleeping the night BEFORE the car was being delivered.

Very nice. The "fun" is just beginning. I mean that in both senses of the word.

Devek had put a full on exhaust system on that car for Darin (2 owners back) and while he liked the sound he said it was to loud. The RMB won't be loud enough. I would probably to the Ott X-pipe first and see how that works because I understand the X pipe and RMB are almost TOO loud... I have an RMB on my '88 S4 and my '92 GTS and the S4 sounds TONS better! I can't get enough of that cars sound!

Dude,

I LOVE IT!!! I remember the car from not only the Blanco 3rd coast but also the 2000 OCIC. Congrats on such a great car!!!!

BTW, looks like you've got the Koni/Hypercoils on it as well. How do you like the ride? I'm thinking I want that setup for the Charlie Car!

Hope to see it soon, come on down to DFW!!

I put and RMB on my car 1st, and it sounded just a little better.

Then I put an X-pipe and FlowMasters on and it sounded wicked!! Maybe to wicked for most folks, but I like it.

Put an X-pipe and RMB on with your stock GTS resonators and you should be exactly right in the sound department.

Very nice!

Interesting interior colour. It does not appear to be a factory colour with that reddish tint.

You might want to consider upgrading the turn signal and sidemarker lenses to clears to give the car a more modern appearance.

Hi Randy:

Classic grey always looks like this on photos. Not sure why the magenta comes out so much more in photos than in daylight.

If your car is ever stolen you might want to check my driveway first.
You're living the dream...
