Clown Shoe FTW. Do you go to Dorkfest? I always wanted one of those, since it's just a coupe station wagon.

15mm spacer on the back of the shoe? Great stance, coil over? Looks like an S54 - wheel color. I bought mine new '99 and still have it with 30k miles, mint, kids think that it's a Civic. I widened the factory stars 26mm in the rear and added 15mm spacer. Looks great.

Oh yeah, congratulations on the GT3.

Yes, running spacers and 255 section tires Bridgestone RE71R (after the photos). TC Kline Coilovers. I had the wheels redone in the shadow chrome...good eye. I've done a ton of engine work to it including cams, injectors, S50 Manifold, tune, Porsche MAF, intake, and 3.73 rear end. I'm forgetting stuff, but it is wicked fun. I bought it a few years ago after regrettably selling a 99 I had when I was 21.

^I run 275's now since my rear wheel is 1"+ wider in the back. Easy fit with 20mm.

You're in Texas. My super super super car detail/CQuartz/PPF guy is in San Antonio. I haul all my cars from Chicago or CO to him and back for detail work. I'm committed!

Sorry for the OT. You're GT3 looks great. Too bad about Mclaren.

For me, McLarens are like air-cooled Porsches.

Wonderful and a pleasure to drive. Not to own.

AAA Premier Membership is much more than extended towing. ... In addition to our standard roadside assistance benefits, AAA premier members also receive: 200 Mile Tow – Premier members receive one 200 mile tow per household per membership year, and three additional 100 mile tows to the destination of your choice.
I have AAA Premier as well. In my 18 months the Mclaren decided to vomit its coolant twice, once when I needed a service and another time when I had some other issues with the car so McLaren covered the towing to and from Houston. I never had to use AAA, but would have if I needed to.
