Thumbs up A non-civic user's car

Yeah, so I don't drive a civic but my girlfriend does.. and she's not too technical or car-savvy yet so I'm helping her out and learning the ropes of the wonderful world of vehicles... while i AM a domestic owner, i don't hold the typical grudge against imports (unless you drive ridiculous rice, or think your stock 'vic can own me)...

soooooooooo here it is.. my bitchin camaro

Favorite pic.. featured in 2003 camaro calendar...


Under the hood...


Sample pic for 2004 calendar...


Interior shot w/ TA seats...


Driver side shot, shows aluminum sills ...


Shot of paint with tropi-care polish...


new head unit...


custom stereo setup by myself (box & amp display)..


another angle...


and the obligatory slicks & skinnies


and a dyno sheet...

Nice... Really nice...

I like the second set of rims on it better than your daily ones I guess, but it does look nice.

flames odd? why's that? and how are the flames inferring rice? not trying to get into the old-school argument here.. if i had done checkers or something else would that still be 'rice'? since there's show AND go i don't think there can be talking

oh, and it sets me apart (and above) the rest.. hence my success at shows

thanks for the comments

and actually.. if you lift the hood right now you'll see that my airlid & fuel rail covers are gloss black now i haven't gotten new pics but that was last year's show setup... came late in the season, then driving it over the winter, a few things rubbed on them and i had to sand em down and repaint... i went back to standard black for now and i'm currently running with a spare set of caps as the blue ones are being coated w/ silver just like the intake...

and all mods were done by myself except for the true dual exhaust, done by a local shop
