My puppy likes the roominess of the Fit (but he wasn't excited about wearing his red backpack for the first time):

Here are some of the other cars I went through before the Fit (I still have the SC300 and the AE86):

Got out of my Audi lease a week after I got the Fit. It was a nice car, but I like the Fit better!

How much did you get your CE28N's for if you don't mind me asking?
Looks great so far, I LOVE your SC300

The Volks are actually my Friend's wheels. We haven't come up with a price yet, but he bought them new back in 2001.

My favorite color because I have the same color. Always wanted to see what bronze wheels would look like on our car. Looks very nice.

That SC300 is SICK. What event was that photo taken at?

Check out Keenan Parts for Mugen stuff, I recently got the Mugen front for <$450 shipped. They were the cheapest I could find.

Thanks. I think the picture taken in the garage was from AutoCon last year. The other picture was taken at Horse Thief Mile at WillowSprings. I rarely drive the SC300...drove it last week and got a speeding ticket

Thanks for the tip on Keenan...I'll check it out!

are your HID's bi-xenon? or did you just get regular and lose the high beam?

Yup, there are pictures of the car on stock height and lowered...lowest setting on Apexi coilovers (no collars removed).

I just ordered my Mugen kit. Got the front lip and grill from Keenan and rear lip (primered) from College Hills. Sucks that the pieces don't come pre-painted in the Vortex Blue color. Or at least, Honda should offer all of the pieces unpainted!

Thanks. I can't wait to get my Mugen kit this week!

Here's another picture of the Corolla from Chuckwalla this past weekend:

Just got my Mugen Kit today from Keenan. Blue Sensation seems to match my Vortex Blue pretty closely...I couldn't really tell the difference.
