There are a few things i miss from the S70 (full framed windows, removable plastic rocker panels, charcoal interior) but overall I like this one more. and the thing i like best about it is that there is absolutely no rust anywhere, makes it super easy to work on.

Chuck I think you should get IPD springs and sell me your eibachs :)

the reason the pics are so dark is because the weather wasnt cooperating and to make them not look drab and dirty i had to mess with the color intensity and contrast. this is what the originals looked like:

thanks :)

It does need to be dropped. ipd's are just a little too low for my liking and I'm also hoping that with eibachs i'll be able to get away with not using linear struts and shocks.
