I bought the merk summer of 2003 from my friend, Joe.
It came with the rims/tires, subs, most of the major work already done (:D Right on!!)
the mods that i know of are:
-rebuilt engine
-turbo coupe air/air intercooler
-Eibach suspension
-Motegi AR49 Rims
-205/40 ZR16 83W Hercules G5000Z
-cat-back exhaust
-12" MTX thunderpro 500W subs
-Alpine 2-channel Class-D 700W amp
-Sony deck
-shortened shifter
-Autogauge tachometer with shift-lite
-complete BMW 5-series HID Zenons in the headlights

I love the unique design, power and turning radius on this car really I've never driven or heard anything quite like it.

I like the interior colour how it is but i need to match things up i was thinking about grey with black to even things out.
