Its gonna be stock on the outside with pegs and no tint...I think people can differentiate....I didnt think about it until Matt showed up at topping lol

Went to the dealer for a few clips and what not for the manual swap and I ran into them while they were buying it....
Very sharp looking caR.

Danny, I'm always down to follow Marshall to his Dad's, and rattle can it Ti Grey so it would look like every other R...

Nooooo!!!!!

Very nice man! You seem pretty lucky. Your family seems to like Volvos.

Yep I finally talked them into it, its a cheaper monthly payment than the p.o.s. lexus we traded it in for

Which Lexus? I honestly wouldn't mind driving an IS250 or IS300AWD. I really want an Evo9

[herz3mc]

I was instructing a modded EVO9 at the school on Sunday. That thing was facelift fast.

Probably one of the fastest accelerating cars I've ever been in.

Marshall - good work getting your Dad into a cool car.

Sup Spencer! I PM'd you about your 3 gauge pod, if it had gauges, what kind of gauges and if it sold. Just seeing what else is out there besides Jakes pod.

What happened yesterday man ??? You okay?

[Matt_]

Yeah man, I hope your okay Spencer.

There is nothing fail about Ti grey.... And yes, I only say that because I have one!

P.S. Gobi is the best interior color that came in the R's.....

[adamjjohn203]

Spencer is fine. So is his car.

Shit, I know. I just don't want to admit it!
I kinda have to stand by my Ti/Gobi color combo.

Now if I was to get my hands on an Atacama interior......

2006 GS 300 AWD, waaaayyy tooo slowwww in comparison. I scare myself driving the R. I'm so used to compensating for the lack of power in my car with a lot of throttle and when I drove the s60 I hit my head sooo many times against the back of the seat lol I love that cbv whoosh sound

Hahahaha. I wouldn't love to do some sort of Atacama/Nordkap color scheme. But my focus is being diverted to the 850R. At least through the weekend..... Speaking of which,

Day 1 of manual swap complete (started a day early)!
Got the trans pulled from the donor car last week and all my other parts came in today.
So we got busy after work and pulled the auto.
Went really smooth. We'll see what tomorrow brings!

Atacama/Nordkap color scheme would be an interesting combo. IMO, too much going on, but that's just me.

good luck with the manual swap this weekend. Nice upgrade to your other R!

Spencer - glad you're alright.
