I know i'd have to do it myself, or find some older ones

Uh oh, i better not taunt him! He'* got 18'*!!! You not paying attention?

If i had a choice, i'd get a red 95 SSEi. The 95 got 225 HP not 205. Some chromed torquestars, cleared lights, tail tint, later...

I wish I could find a mint 40th anniversary SSEi with less than 50,000 miles. That would be sweet.
I know of a black 1997 40th Anniversary SSEi in Fort Wayne with 61,000 miles on it. The guy is asking like $8750 for it. I'll give you more info as soon as I finish my deal with him.

Yeah that is one thing, i'd never run HID in a 92-95.


I just prefer the 92-95 body. Some colors in the 96-99 body are sweet, but some are weird. I love the blue/green, white and black. If i could get a 96 white SSEi or so i guess i could live with it

When something happens to a white car, i tell myself there is no curse. Take it however you want. The only car i like with white is a bonneville too.

Did you all notice that some foreign cars that have HID'* still have coated lens on the lights like the Lexus LS 400 or the Mercedes * class?
