beautiful color. Good call, stands out but not too flashy. Nice to see it looking as good as a car that fast should.

no ****. this car has went from white, to white and carbon fiber, to white and carbon fiber and hit by a drunk driver, from white, cf, orange, black and hit by drunk driver, to this. Thank gawd it's somewhat visually appealing.

If anybody wants, I'll sell the exhaust for 3 3inch titanium u-bends, and titanium exhaust hangars.

Amazing car man, looks real nice. Especially since we all know what it runs, makes it that much more attractive.

What muffler is that? Im looking for something to that effect for the MazdaSpeed but I cant find anything that looks like that with the right inlet.

SikMindz · 02-25-2007, 09:46 PM

Rob just texted me that it was APC.

5-lO · 02-25-2007, 10:23 PM

Knowing you thats sarcasm, however I do not know

SpyhunteR · 02-26-2007, 04:02 AM

I think most places would advertise it as an N1 style muffler.. Specifically, my can is an Apex'i N1 (turbo) muffler. they make a smaller N/A version. The turbo one has a 3inch inlet.

timberwoof · 02-26-2007, 05:06 AM

there is a supra here in town that have the same muffler. It sounds sweet, but the turbo on the car is massive. You can here it from about a mile away.

bballr4567 · 02-26-2007, 05:58 AM

Love the color for sure. Will look even better with the door skirts on.

Exodus · 02-26-2007, 07:54 AM

Im guessing you're no longer going for the sleeper look.
Love the look you got going w/ the paint and the rims.

True Dat yo!

timberwoof · 02-26-2007, 10:48 AM

GAs are known more for their exterior work by other people, usually those who don't own one. Its not know for its performance, so yeah its a "sleeper" either way.

notsoaveragej0e · 02-26-2007, 11:04 AM

The question of why the whole car was repainted was never addressed...

timberwoof · 02-26-2007, 12:42 PM

I'm taking a guess and saying it was because the paint matches the carbon fiber pieces.....

SikMindz · 02-26-2007, 12:46 PM

Wrong and wrong. He already addressed that in the thread. There were some imperfections and he wasn't happy with any of it so they resprayed the car.

I want to see your ish up close Rob. I had a hard time choosing between the color I have to match the CF or a dark gunmetal like yours.

well to the casual observer it's just going to look like a nice car with wheels that's taken care of. It's when people get ****y and then see my taillights, that's when the did that just happen? reactions start, and sleeper status is solidified.
