Yes, please, please leave it stock, an SC with that low mileage should not be molested.

... i will go there and punch you if you put anything other than something stock on that car... and then I'd give the keys back to your dad. I would then convince him to get you a civic if you want to put a body kit and rims, you obviously don't sound like you're passed the F&F stages if you keep mentioning kits and rims in your post

rims arent too bad of an idea as long as he doenst stretch or pull the fenders and keeps the stock wheels in his garage...

I'd like to see ABSOLUTELY NOTHING done to the car but maintenance. That being said, I'd rather see wheels on it than a stereo in it. Wheels can simply be pulled off. When you start tearing into a 15 year old console who knows if you will crack something. I put IS350 wheels on my car and it looks great to my eye even at stock height. Most of the young cats will scream "DROP IT!" But all of us dont feel the need to be "slammed," bounce around on coilovers with Autobot body kits, or have a pinky worth of clearance between our tire and fender. I'm not mad at all you young cats going through the phase in your life, by all means do you. But I've been there and done that, and my a$$ is to old for it now. You'll get there one day too, trust me.

Agreed.

I say keep it stock and keep it in storage for another 10 years. Can you imagine what it will be worth then? Probably more than it retailed for.

My first (and current car) I bought myself was a 95 SC 400 with 200k miles on it.

I have SC 430 wheels on it, I put a garmin/Kenwood touch screen GPS in the dash and am currently replacing the damaged/frayed pieces of interior. My car was definitely some one's beater, but it's for for me to put time and a little cash into the car to make it mint.


I'd like to see a 15 year old car with 14k miles on it, in perfect condition. It's ridiculous. I was looking at old Caddy's on ebay and some of these cars from the 70's have less then 25k miles and I laugh at the 10k miles I put on my car this year alone lol.
