Back in the beginning of summer I traded my 91 to phillyb for his blowed up 99. You can use alot of words to describe Phil's car. Clean is not one of them. It had alot of good points and alot of bad but I have been wanting a 99 for a while. The time was right. One the good side it has Megan ez street coil overs, Flyin Miata sway bars and a torsen diff. The bad points were the ugliest interior ever, dirty faded paint, spray painted front bumper, ugly tan top and a huge dent in the quarter panel. By the way it is a cali car so that means NO rust....
Here it is the day I got it. I kept my old wheels too!
