Arancio Argos would be pretty damn cool.

Mitsubishi Sunset Pearl Orange from the 4G Eclipse is a great color too. I wanted to do our Spyder in that color before we decided to sell it.

I will need to get my Stealth repainted at some point. I'm not sure if I want to do a full color change, or stick with some sort of red, so I wouldn't have to do the engine bay. I like the Porsche Red a lot too.

I'd leave your car red, but maybe a different shade or something more metallic. That Mazda red or GMs Red Mist Metallic would be cool.

Was thinking this maybe

But I like the Porsche Red, and some of the Ferrari reds too.

Ooh, I like that.

I like the wheels too. Need to find a set like that for my car.

The red that’s on the Mazdas is insane actually

That Mazda red looks pretty similar to redfire. Just a little more "pop" in the pictures but a redfire Terminator looks great in person

Yeah the Mazda Soul Red is one of my favorite colors to have come out in the last several years.

Yeah it's crazy how big the modular engines. I still can't believe they got a 5.4 in there.

It lives!!!!!


Waiting on parts that got damaged so it'll be a while before it moves but it starts and runs.

Just added up time spent on it. About 8 hours. 5 if I didn't swap my IRS back in.

Damn. After 8 hours I'd still be thinking about how I wanted to get started.

This is why I never get anything done.

That’s awesome. Do I see some old tires that need to be burned off?

Absolutely. I won't drive on them. They're a little too close until I get some low profile IRS bolts.
