This is my other car. I use to street race the car for years (not proud of that but that's the way it was back then) and now i just putter around town or the odd car show. I still work so my schedule is kind of crazy but I intend to drive it more this summer. I have owned this since 1982 and am the 3rd owner. Enjoy

My list hasn't been great but I've still had fun along the way:

-1988 Civic Hatch
-1990 Civic Hatch
-1994 Prelude VTEC
-2003 Acura CL Type S 6MT (heavily modded, definite sleeper)
-2013 Scion FR-S 6MT (suspension mods, mainly)
-2003 Lexus IS300 Sportcross
-2016 GTI SE DSG w/ LP
-2018 Golf R 6MT

I still have the FR-S, but I'll be selling it soon to fund some projects around the house.

No, I don't know why the Mustang was not blue but I think that year the light blue was too light and the dark blue was too dark.

I'm a blue car guy, too. First GTI was a Shadow Blue MK6. Current GTI is a Night Blue MK7. Next car will either be a Dark Iron Blue or Great Falls Green Alltrack (most likely the green), OR if my life's circumstances make an unexpected but fortuitous change, a Lapiz Blue R.

Side note: really wish the Shadow Blue from the MK6 was available on the 7's. I like it more than any of the other blues currently offered.

Very nice wheels! Are they light/ultra-light? Forged?

Before I buy an R I drove these cars, some of which are the wife's (sedans). Most were purchased new.
