The only thing that I dislike about black is keeping it clean. It's dirty minutes after cleaning it. Other than that, there is no better looking color.

I wasn't a fan of the orange, or matte finish, but I respect other peoples' choices, and I love seeing the diversity, but oh man - the car just looks so wicked clean and aggressive now; the black with the Varis bumper, wheels, and blackout out headlights is just metal!
Great job @digital_assassin, I can't wait to see it in person (hopefully!) at the meet this weekend |

Eventually. I'm thinking Arising II with their GT wing. May go widebody but only if I swap motor or go turbo. I don't feel my 285 rwhp commands a widebody. She has plenty of rubber with 245 / 265.

Well she was turned back to OEM status and sold today. I loved this car and who knows, I may buy another some day as a dedicated track car once these can be found for a couple grand. My journey with this car has been the best out of any vehicle I have ever owned and I've met some great people along the way. I bought an Evo X a few weeks ago so that story is just beginning.
It's been fun!
