You can see the Eibachs got rid of a good ammount of the fender gap. Some 17" rims would fix the rest (and allow even bigger brakes).

She loved it so much, she acually cried when they sold it to me. All reciepts from day 1 including the build sheet and the info brochure. All recalls done. Still has the original floor mats (came with summer and winter mats along with summer and winter tires). Oil changed @ or before 3k miles every time. It's been babied.


Here's what happened to the stator shaft on the old tranny....

I used to have one, I liked it a lot except the torque steer. The wife and I went to the Honda dealer to buy her a car and the first thing out of the salesmans mouth was "I have a Honda here that will beat that SHO" I told him I would race for pink slips right now, he shut up and we left.

As nice, and well maintained as his car is, 3-4K, At the most. But, that really depends on what the owner thinks it is worth, Im just going by bluebook....these cars have a HORRIBLE resale Value.

WhiteDevil, would it excite you when a stock SHO beat your car when it was stock? Heh... I pulled more then 3 car lengths on a '95 GT the other night from 0-110mph.

Ya sadly I'd be lucky to get more then $2k-$3k for mine. :nonono:
