Just picked her up today. Fully loaded (no stereo, taken at the auction yard, but I got that covered noooooo problem). I know you've all seen a million of these, so I won't post too many pics.

I've already got plans... what do you think? 17x8 +35 ASA AR1 Black face w/ Machined lip w/ 225/45-17's, and Suspension Techniques 1.1" drop springs.
Nothing too crazy, just some subtle handling mods... I care too much about gas mileage

miles? price? in any case sweet car to start with!!
Looks like it has overspray in the wheel wells?
Nice car though
Disclaimer: No one cares what you think about street racing. Mmmk?
Nice start for sure. I like it. And of course, everyone starts on the same exact
level as you.
Sweet Cavi, looks good. I'd suggest some struts to go with those springs..best to get something that can handle a height lower than stock.
Blown.
Yeah it has a salvage title :/ But it was only hit in the door / quarter panel. It's all repaired and I had the alignment checked and everything is straight. No damage other than cosmetic that was all fixed. It has 12,600 miles on it. Only $6000
I'm happy about that. The only thing that sucks is the driver's seat bolster is permanently pushed over... so it's like I'm driving in a racing seat... but it's annoying. I need to find a Corbeau seat cheap or something... also it messed up the airbag in the driver's seat. Oh well I'll stuff a pillow there, I'll be safe
I was thinking that since the drop would only be about an inch (suspension techniques springs), I wouldn't need different struts... I don't want to replace the oem ones yet this thing is bearly broken in. I have suspension techniques springs on my Lumina Z34 and I've never bottomed out the struts on that.

^^Word. And I think the wheels you have planned will look good.
Blown.
wow $6K with a salvage title
In case you didn't catch it... only 12.5k miles and the only damage was the door that was dealer repaired (after bought back from insurance).
No problems other than the seat and no radio. Runs perfect, has service records too.
I think 6000 for a car with 12.5k miles on it and no mechanical problems is a great deal. Who care about the salvage title? I'm probably gonna have this car for 5 or 6 years anyway or more if I decide to turn it into an autoX car when I get a new car at that time.
