its just the base model i told her to take it back and get a GT but she doesn't want a supercharger. frown im not really sure as to why it has so many miles ill ask her tomorrow when she gets up. one of the cool features is the remote start for those cold Texas mornings. lol i am really digging the HUD it comes in real handy since i like to know everything that the car im driving is doing at certain times ill get some pictures tomorrow before i go to work for you guys.

Fixed... smile

The HUD on the newer models are a little different than the HUD we're used to.
They breifly show what gear is selected and some other things that I can't think of at the moent. A year ago or so when I got to drive a GXP, that was the thing I noticed about it.

I was going to guess that it was silver. lol That's all I see around here!

HUD = win. That was a total steal. The G6 I was driving as loaner from Thornhill was an 06 with 29k and they were trying to get 15k for it, and it was a base model.

If you're going to be at Shiken's anytime today, I'm sure I'll see it. >:F He's been bothering me about Okami anyway.

yep like Arc said its my dads its a 2002 NHRA Special Editon so far as we can tell the only difference between it and a normal TA are the badges. But there were only 189 red t-top automatics with those badges put on. laugh
