I'm thinking a top mounted GT3076 will be plenty for what I wanna do ;) Also, my last post was edited to add one more pic I forgot to post.

I am in the market for a new car... Hmm. Brand new around 20k, means lots of money left for mods... haha

Any word on how good/bad the chassis and transmission are?

They don't look as good in recent pictures I've seen on google, but probably because they have massive wheel gap. Maybe the front end reminds me of a Tiburon.

Hmm it does look kinda bland. Dished wheels and a massive drop would help.

Looks like a mix between a Pontiac and a Toyota.

Not much word on the drivetrain yet. Though the flywheel/clutch on the 6 speed will definitely be a weak spot due to the 2pc. flywheel. The chassis is supposedly pretty stiff. They used a lot of high carbon steel, to make it as stiff as possible while keeping weight as low as possible. I forget exactly what the numbers are, but it's supposed to be something like, 20% stiffer than an M3

A drop, wheels and tinted windows would help a ton. It looks like the color will make a big difference too. The silver isn't bad, but I don't like the red at all. Looks like a sweet deal!
