This is my baby! I was test driving one back in December of 2004. I was kind of an ass to the dealership because once I decided on the car, I made them ship me in a brand new 2005 taffy white EP3. So I rolled away 2 weeks later with this beauty:mbiggrin: There are still a few things before I am finishing with it, but so far everything has come together the way I have planned. I always like keeping my cars clean and unassuming as possible, so not to much flashy stuff as you can see. I wanted to re-post this since it was blanked by the forum crash....I mean upgrade:mbiggrin: Mod List follows pics.

lol....it comes with the 5 speed mugen shift knob. the 6-speed knob has the pattern engraved on the knob, but the 5-speed does not, which is why they give you the little sticky plate:mbiggrin:

gah too many replies from me...lol. thanks for the comment on the wheels. i was searching for a while and apparently no one on here had them yet(i asked for a couple of weeks for pics:mbiggrin:). for a cheaper wheel they are great. only 17.5 lbs. without tire too which is good. very close to 1lbs/inch:mcool:

Unfortunately I am really the only modded EP3 in Savannah, except for Minivan Assassin. Last time I talked to him though he was looking on selling the car.

Well, the car is on its way to its new owner. A site sponsor, whom you all know as POOPTOOTH, purchased the car. It has been an extreme pleasure working with him these last two weeks and his professionalism and communication skills made this entire thing much easier for the both of us. It also makes me feel much better knowing that my car will go to an owner who will take care of it and enjoy it as much as I did. Once the car was on the truck and leaving, I had some mixed feelings, but knowing it will be in a good home makes me feel much better. Thanks for all the comments over the last few years and I am sure we will see the car back up in here under POOPTOOTH's ride thread...lol.:mbiggrin:

I of course will still be hanging out here, for the simple fact that I have knowledge that is always available and this place is by far the best auto forum on the interwebz!
