33k miles, fabspeed exhaust, PSS10 suspension, and flawless condition. It's exactly what I was looking for. I was preparing myself for the long-haul to find exactly what I wanted, and I found it in less than a week. Super lucky. I'm loving it so far, and will have many more pictures to come. I just put on S-04 pole posiitons, and they're merely adequate. When these die I'll be putting on PSS or their equivalent at the time. The PSS backorder was poorly timed, but I'm certainly making due lol. I've been a long time lurker on RL, and I look forward to contributing much more in the future. Thanks to everyone who helped me without their knowledge simply by posting info for the good of the community, hopefully I can return the favor to someone else in the future.

Thank you! I agree, this car is exactly what I would have built if buying it new. I feel extraordinarily lucky to have found it so quickly, and for it to be in such great condition.

The only thing I would change right now is the head unit. I'm waiting for some better Apple Carplay options before I take the plunge.

Thanks! It feels pretty good to finally have one of my dream cars parked in the garage. I find myself walking out there and turning on the light just to look at it. I hope the boost never gets old, but if it does I just have to give a friend a ride and give them a taste of 2nd-3rd acceleration and their reaction should be a nice substitute.
