Just here to start a thread to track my journey as the "Build Week" Threads are jumping around with my tentative dates. Need this for memories! Info will be revealed once the car gets here! Will be back and forth updating with my story and this story. Enjoy!
Photos of some of my previous cars to keep things interesting. Had quite a few others, but this is what I currently have on the PC.
Yes… I have "JDM" roots, thus I wanted to share my lowish mile 99 SI, but appreciate all cars and have had a bit of everything. Funny thing is Im buying a brand new G80, but of all my cars, I loved my Vettes the most. All the cars you see and Ive bought for "fun cars" have been low mile and "proper spec". Hope to continue the trend.
