Looking at the Mickey Thompson Baja ATZ P3 Tire. Comes highly recommended, but I haven't settled on anything yet.

Another thing I'm looking to have added are seat covers. I have yet to choose which fabric would be the best choice for me, but I think, with my lifestyle, Neoprene would be best. (been doing my reading: https://www.mycustomcar.com.au/blog/...at-covers.html) Lastly, I'm going to be updating my sound system. For the last year, the sound has been broken and staticky and I'd want for that to be sorted out.

So yeah, that's what I'm driving...and I'm 5'3".

when i started reading about you wanting to add seat cover, i immediately started thinking about neoprene...lol. i've seen a bunch of wranglers with those and they look pretty good. plus, they're easily cleaned if (when) they get dirty.

any idea on what sound system you'd want? like what brand and what type of speakers, head unit, etc....?

For tyres, I've got Toyo A/T II Extreme and am very happy with them. The rubber is softer which is great for the winter's up here. Not a concern of yours though eh, hahaha.

Well, I know this is an old thread, but I'm gonna post here anyway.
I have finally saved up enough money to buy the car I've wanted since I was a kid. Yeah, it's a replica, but I'm buying a 1965 AC Cobra, complete with the 427 side-oiler and top loader 4 spd. It's black with white stripes, 15" Halibrand pin-drive wheels, full leather interior and is in pristine condition. To say it's fast is an understatement!
Look out all you Z06's, you're gonna get snakebit!!

I am now finalizing the deal. It will have to be shipped from Alabama and as soon as I get it I'll post the pics. It's a completely factory built Unique Motorcars replica. I just hope there are a few nice evenings left this fall here in PA to drive it.

ETA; This is exactly what it looks like...

Trinity.
I'm hoping to get it here within the next 2 weeks. After an agreement on the price, the owner and I then have to make arrangements with the shipping co. when pickup and delivery will be convenient for both of us. This weekend is out, as I'm leaving today for Reading for the NHRA Dodge Nationals for the weekend and won't be back until Tues. (you just gotta love the eye-burning, sinus opening smell of nitro and the ground pounding thunder of over 10,000 HP!!)

Not actual pic.

My nephew bought a used 2003 BMW M3 for around $9K. It has a 6-speed stick, 20-inch wheels and is fully loaded. He did his own maintenance and changed all of the belts and fluids.
I just got back from taking a ride in it.

TheSpruceMoose · 06-19-2019, 11:29 PM

Currently leasing a 2019 white Jetta, base model.
Pretty smooth ride with a fairly slickish interior and exterior for a compact car. The disc brakes have done some annoying things that the dealership claims is normal but aside from that not a too bad of a ride.

Eschenpod · 06-20-2019, 04:49 PM

This ole' thing.

canucksam · 07-03-2019, 10:14 PM

Still my 2002 Nissan Xterra which I purchased new on August 4, 2002.

A birthday coming up for old "Rusty" (that really isn't)!
