Be aware of the "mod bug" ..... you'll know if you've been bitten if you start ordering mods ..... before you get the car ....

Hey everyone chiming in from NJ name is Harry about to take the plunge e46 m3 to 86 figuring out what color but leaning towards black. List of mods planned already. I thought I got rid of the mod bug but as I told my wife,
"Just when I thought I was out...they pulled me back in!" Rocket Bunny here I come...

no story here, can't see myself spending all that money on a new car when I know I will sell within the year. I'll have this one done for under $13k, half the price of a new car with lots on $$$ for mods if needed. If I decided to mod now, it will hurt less knowing I won't have excess parts laying around.

See, that's a story.

Good to see somebody bothering to bring life back to a fallen angel.

First post, checking in from Southern Maryland. Picked up my manual Hot Lava over labor day weekend w/ Toyota badges and bigger wheels. had the badges plasti-dipped within a couple hours of leaving the dealer. Loving it so far. Its alot more fun than the Soul I traded in and a better daily than my old s2k. And its getting better mileage too

The dealer put the badges on for you? Airbag cover? Did they charge a lot, or did you explain that they fucked up by putting scion badges on to start with and it needed to be fixed like any other cosmetic damage prior to accepting delivery?
