Nice find, paint job is way cool, but the daisy's? Not so cool, but that's just me. Enjoy your "S"

Well hell, if you're not gonna get it I'll make the road trip! If I can't get the car I'll jack the wheels! That's the key selling point for me! Now I just gotta figure out how to get to TX incognito!

I agree with the wheels. Awesome paint ruined by the wheels. Not my cup o tea, but to each is there own I suppose or something.

It's called chromealusion (sp?). Expensive paint and changes colors in different lighting. Again, I'm NOT buying this car

Oh my.. That's ummm a very interesting bug... I don't know if I should be repulsed or impressed that the daisy centers match the "color" of the car....

If you bought it you could probably get a part time job as a florist delivery person -- think about it.

Ouch, that is one jacked up TS. Pull the decals, put on some nice wheels and it'd be pretty cool...

Oh, the price is nuts--$10,900 is a good starting point.

I agree about the daisy wheels, however, that's an easy fix. I think the paint color itself is quite nice, and looks like a rather expensive paint job.

So I wouldn't sweat the wheels. Can have those gone in no time at all.

Chromealusion(sp?) paint is wicked expensive and changes colors in different lighting.

LOL Gary!
We all know that despite the daisy wheels, etc., that would be one smokin' ride when you got through with it
What ya wanna bet her name is 'Daisy'
That is a nice paint job though - you can see the reflection of the blond taking the photos in picture # 12....

Except for the daisy wheels and the daisy stickers, the car looks nice all in all. The Chromealusion(sp?) paint looks great.
