Looks like an excellent car & in good condition! Black is one of my favorite colors for these cars; makes them look like a different car. Seems like you have some things planned for it too.. do you intend on adding a system?
Good find, and welcome to the forums!

plans......yes they will be under way....the new engine and tranny mounts i put in make a world of a difference.....before when it idled...the door pannels rattled etc, now its striaght silence, the only thing that bothers me now is the rattling form my supercharger.....and head gaskets cuz tehy're still OEM....always in the back of my mind. but ya i do have a system....2 12 inch JL audio subs, r.fosgate 301M amplifier..some ****** pioneer deck whcih will be replaced shortly...eibach pro kit springs rae next up :D

i coudlnt' tell you the EXACT price unfortunately becuase i bought it the way it is in november...it was repatined in october i believe. appanretly there was vandolism on the sunroof and rear windshield which caused the paint to be scratched, and hte insurance company agreeed to pay for like polisihng the roof and repainting the trukn and the guy just paid off the rest and did the whole car. the paint looks dead nice in the pics eh? but in real life...well tehrs orange peel on the roof behind the sunroof, and little bupms here n there....im really picky bout that stufff so it irritates me but i'll take it. black is hard to keep up to, swirl marks and all so invested in ZAINO....www.zainobros.com
