the TL is a very fun car but torque steers like CRAZY. btw you can smoke a BPU golf or jetta whatever those things are with a front mount. its really funny to see their face when you slowly pull away. hehe

Nice color too! any pics of the celi's accident?

94' ST Coupe - 5sfe Motor swap and brake swap.

Nice choice! If I HAD to get a sedan/family car/commuter it would be between a TL, IS300, or the new camry+appearance package.

Congrats on the purchase, must be nice enjoying something relatively new.

yea the new owner did. fixed the front and rear bumper, replaced the GT4 hood with OEM style CF hood, and gave the celi HIDs.
