This is the first car that I got when I was like only 21 years old and Ill never forget this car ever.

I sold it at Aug '09.

This car obtain the nickname ‘copone’ by having black out stock rim by having similar appearance of police car having blackout rim.
Im focusing on the engine first then everything else such as soup it up and give it sleeper look with stock rim.

Possible motor swap:
2.2 Rebuilt OHV Engine
2.4 LD9 Twin Cam
2.2 Ecotec

not too bad. if u do the engine swap, then go with the ecotec so u can supercharge later if u want more power. i do like the look of my lip under the front bumper, it makes the car look lower and meaner. it would be sweet if u put a z24 front bumper on it tho
