Awesome. And thank you for the wheel offer but they don't really turn my crank. I do appreciate it though!

Re: Wheels
Let me guess, you're holding out for something more of a smooth billet with a swirly design.
In reply to John Welsh :
Think tfp1, trm c1, etc. Shockingly, NOT billets or white wheels!
ceramicoat in process. First coat applied.
the factory paint on this thing is actually really, really nice. Im amazed, in all honesty.
it also fits a full set of 225/45/15 hankook rs4 without too much trouble.

That's Great news ! 
Thanks in advance.
724 miles on it and loaded to leave for the challenge after school tomorrow.
I made the mistake of telling my wife I would take Girl Scout cookies and whatever room I had left over. I forgot that woman always kicked my ass at Tetris. So we have plenty of free Girl Scout cookies to give away at the challenge but donations will be accepted.

Outstanding! . ! See you Friday morning
Reminds me of the trip to the SCCA convention in NC when the Abarth had like 300 miles on it. And Do Si Do's are my weakness.

I think there's some buried in there for you

Looking forward to seeing your care package in place. See you tomorrow morning. We probably won't pull in till about midnight or so but by God I'm going to be awake early enough to get omelettes
Averaged 40mpg on the way down. After driving my 13mpg truck, this is mind boggling.
In reply to Dusterbd13 :
And we have yours in the back of the truck too.
You're gonna be pleasantly surprised.
yeahhhh.....
We made a good call here.
She's driven the last three hours while I slept.
Ots a wierd place to have a 16 year old daughter, and a non E36 M3box you can trust her with.
It's a good place, just a wierd one.

Yes you did my friend.
Great seeing you again this weekend. Drive safely.
they need center caps and spacers to fill out the wheel wells but I really like them
Appropriately close to a "build your own" Corolla Nighshade which was only offered in black, white, or black/white. I like the blue!
$1800 cheaper too.
Exactly my thoughts! I'm super digging it.
Kinda want the xae spoiler, but not $350 worth of want.

The more I look at them, these Nightshade alloys look to just be the Bronzification of Scion tC, Gen2 (like 2013) alloys which are the same fitment, hub of 54.1 and bolt pattern of 5x100. 18x7
Congratulations! As much as I like old junk, every once in a while you just want a reliable appliance with recent electronics that goes when you want to go. I love that color and agree that those wheels are the right play. Looks great!
In reply to Loweguy5 :
Amen. And I like this car way more than I ever thought I would. It's really just a nice car to drive that handles and stops and runs out good.
In other news: gm dark bronze mist metallic is stupid close to enkei bronze.
