Goodbye to the tC
So recently my mom decided to get rid of her truck and get something different. Well, seeing this as an opportunity for me to go to something new I decided to give her my car so that I could get something new. Well, for those of you who haven't seen it, here is the old car.
And here is what I decided to get.
What you see is what came on it when I bought it. Although I am not a fan of the wheels, they are decent enough for now. The car also has a drilled and slotted rotors, paint matched interior, and LED accent and map lights, and a racing beat exhaust. The best thing about it is the motor only has 7000 miles on it. The body has 108000 but once I save up money I'll try and help those miles out with some new components. Feel free to comment. I'm still going to hang around the forum and see whats up. Maybe even keep modding my moms tC if I find extra time and money (most likely not though). Thanks!

Yeah, I'll get some pictures up of the engine bay. I have to learn everything new about how to work on this engine. It should be fun...but probably more frustrating. Haha. And once I get to work I'll probably make my build thread on here too. And the only engine swap I am considering is going from the two rotor 13b to the 3 rotor 20b. I kind of like the uniqueness of the rotors. And i'll definitely give you props Macavely.

Picked her up for 12000. Which seemed a lot at first but then I realized there was a new engine, no crashes or dents, only minor dings. Had the upgraded brakes, custom interior which is in immaculate shape, a racing beat exhaust, and new tires. I figured I got it pretty good considering around here they are going for closer to 15000.
