Sweet ride I have to say. Black cars always look the best too. I have a buddy that has a 99 and it is sweeet.

Yea i love the look of the 99 vr4s....most of the mods I got came brand new with the car and a full 99 was part of it...minus the 2nd gen side skirts so I am looking for those now

That looks like a great car. I'd like to see it closer up after the paint job.

By the way, are you in a rural area there where you have to take it on gravel roads?

Be sure to post up some pics so we can check 'er out...

That reminds me. I finally had a chance to take a look at some 9b turbos.. WOW.. those are teeny turbos, I can't believe they put 2 of those on the 3000GT... It was the 9b off of my 87 Colt Turbo.

Really neat cars! I've always liked them and am still kicking myself for not picking up a VR4 Spyder when I had the chance!

I fell in love with them when I was a sophomore in HS. Had a buddy who had a friend that had one, but it was an SL. Got to ride around in it and the chicks really dug it. It's okay, I didn't know shit about cars anyway.. it was just a good lookin' car.
