Default She's Here!

After almost two weeks my long distance relationship has made it home!

'02, Polar Silver/Metropol Blue, Aerokit with only 38k miles! It also has the full leather package (leather wrapped air vents!) and heated seats. Tons of service history, no accidents and a clean PPI.

It has a 6 disc changer, so naturally they only installed a CR-220 up front . I need to go find some old mix tapes. First order of business is putting the Aerokit front dam away and putting on the cheap C4S spoiler to minimize damage. Then a COBB Accessport.

I forgot the key when I went outside, uploading now.

The camera makes the metropol carpet look light and washed out, but in person they look much darker.

That is one sweet ride. How much did you say you paid for it?

Also no need to go with a C4S spoiler. You can buy cheap aftermarket aero spoilers instead.

That's not bad either, but the C4S one is not as low. Right now I can't even get the car in my driveway, stupid rolled curb. I need to find some lumber temporarily until I can rig up something better.

Paid $47.7k which I thought was fair given the service history, mileage, aero kit, color, and condition of the car. It was more than I originally wanted to spend, but it was (I think) the right car.

It's more than fair for that car in that color scheme. It's actually a very good deal.

Thanks! Gotta figure out how to disable laser jamming before I use it here in CA.

The bluetooth looks totally antiquated but we’ll see how it works.

That is a fantastic deal.
