Default Somewhat new member picked up a 1993 SC300 5 speed black/grey

Just wanted to say hi and say how helpful this board has been.About 2 weeks ago I picked up my 1993 Sc300 5speed Black/Grey rare from what I have read 108k on it very clean. One owner car bone stock except for tint. I bought it in Houston and drove it back to Socal 1st day did 13 hours of driving and might be the most comfortable car I have ever had. Car passed smog without issue. I can't even start to say how much I love this car. I also own a C5 Corvette but the build quality is night and day although the Corvette can run circles around it in every way performance wise. Currently looking for a new set of 18's for it and looking forward to doing a few other tweaks since this will be my daily driver.

So far the mod's are
Sirius radio
Sprayed Red Tails the orange sucked
Some new headlight bulbs but nothing ricer
Sc400 wing
Aux lighter plug in armrest
Here are some pics.

Looks good. Red/clear tails always look nice. The interior looks to be silver-/gray-looking but maybe it's just the picture. Isn't a gray interior very rare?

i like it. if you dont mind asking how much did you pay for yours? just curious. now you need to get rid of those ugly wheels and get some work equips, with coilovers, and front SC400 lip

oh and make sure the wheels are hot pink with a chrome lip......just kidding

Thanks

Wheels are now #1 but my budget is around $600.00 with tires so I will have to find a used set
Springs are down the line. Coilovers if I get a big bonus
I have ton's of stereo crap but I am not sure if I want to go that route. I kinda like having the stock stuff and not worry about anything getting ripped off.

If I sold my Vette I am sure I could turn it into a 700hp monster but this car is going to be my daily so unless the vette goes away it will remain a tame 235hp between the intake and exhaust mod.
