    Thanx for the comments!!
    nah, there aren't any graphics on the side it's just a reflection of the sky on the super polished paint work. As for econ, she gets about 14L/100 on average.

    Sleeper? What sleeper? It's just your average run of the mill Stato... haha The two baby seats in the back add to the deception.

    haven't her on the dyno yet but I'm curious as to what she puts out at the rear. I'm only guessing but I've gotta have atleast 235 at the flywheel.

    thanx wes. she'll look better once I get the 17x8 VS Grange rims, Grange grille and factory fog lights to match. Hey, if someones got time can they photoshop the VS Grange rims onto the car just so I can see what it'll look like.

    yeah, she ain't bad hey.. still got a few things to do! six, well she sits a little over 2 grand cruising on the highway sitting on 100. It's probably off a bit as I went from a 65 series tyre to a 60 series without getting the speedo recalibrated.
