Welcome to the club.
What trim level you have? Sounds like a great car. That old with very few miles.
Ya, there'* a few members in your area I believe.

You have a lot of options to dress up the outside as well as the inside. If you have an idea just do a search and you should pull up a lot of information. If you can't find it, then post your idea and we will see what we can find. You also have a lot of engine options. The sky'* the limit here. Once the mod bug bites, it'* all down hill from there.

That'* what I've been trying to do lately is research and I can't find any sites for stuff for my car. Also I was wondering if you know how to get swirl marks out my grandma always kept the car in the garage and when I got it it had dust all over it and the paint kind of has a hazy swearl marks to it in the shade but outside in the sun u can see it can I just use a rubbing compound on it and a wax or what is your idea? And I kind of wanted to get a flip out tv does anyone have pictures of one in there car that they can post up
