===============================================



After owning this car for many years so far, I learned to truly appreciate this platform.
Of course many would say that this car is "lacking power" but I'd say its plenty for me.
The handling and feel of this platform is amazing as stock.
When paired with better suspension and stickier tires, boooiii does this handle like a dream.

As my daily driver, it makes mundane commutes much more enjoyable.
For now, it is my daily driver that occasionally hits back roads/canyon roads
but I hope to bring it to racetracks, perhaps starting with AutoX.
I have learned a lot from this amazing piece of machinery and hope to keep it for the longevity of its life.

Hopefully I remember to check back to this page to keep y'all updated on my build!

First Day Picked Up (January 2015):




FUN FACT: After just 6 days of ownership, I got rear-ended by a police officer due to him being on his phone.
There wasn't a lot of damage, just a crack in the bumper and broken reverse light housing.
I was heartbroken but the car was still in great shape.
Thank goodness the cop covered the whole thing.

Rear-Ended Count: 3 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
