Haha, I know right? I'm definitely glad I'm doing this and not my sedan, I think in the long run I would have been a little sad that I didn't have a wagon, but now I have one. . The only weird thing about this one is the trim level, by that I mean, the center console doesn't have cup holders, but both front seats are powered, and all leather interior but not full wood trim, it's just odd to me. My 854, only the driver seat is powered, full wood trim, but leather/cloth interior. oh well. Works for me.

Yeah, I'm always thinking to myself, maybe I should just save up and get something that doesn't need as much work, but pay more in the long run, but, I really want to do the work myself, and I think the end product would be really fulfilling. And that color keeps growing on me, I can just picture it now...17 neb replicas, tinted windows, sitting nice and low.....oh yeah.

Nice buy gilber. And I call shotgun on the fish. You gotta do something really crazy with your wagon. Utilize that extra space and watch like 50 episodes of Pimp My Ride and I'm sure you'll think of something. Put a bed back there lol. You're in college right? There's all the reason you need LOL!

Haha, the fish is all yours then. And yeah, I'm in college, I already plan on buying an air up mattress to keep in there. This will be perfect for out of town meets that are a ways away and I need to camp out somewhere.

haha, if that was in the budget. I was thinking more along the lines of bilsteins or monroes and ipd sport springs. But that would be sick, airbags and stretched tires on some 17x9's or something. haha. (if those would even fit in the wheel well).

I think it would match the hunter green quite nicely. Really make your car stand out.

*CHANGE OF PLANS*

I am gutting the entire car down to its bare bones so I can fit 17, no wait, 18 by 9 inch wheels paired with airbags to ensure the lowest ride possible. It will be so low, I will actually be underground when I am driving.

Sounds good, and as soon as things start to happen I will update this. Keep your eyes open for an R interior, R front spoiler, and a motor, it'd really help me out.

Either that or some big burly dude drove it for a while, or maybe instead of getting in the car like every other normal person, he took a running start and jumped in. Oh well, the interior is getting replaced with an R interior eventually.
