The drive back was flawless. Gas mileage was a little over 18 MPG. But I was testing the boost a lot too.

Wow, that sure is clean. I approve!

How much was it? I'm guessing somewhere in the 4k range, considering how well taken care of it looks.

very good purchase if you got it for less than 5k

Excellent Eric!

So is the first mod going to be a 13B-rew with a single turbo upgrade?

Or a CD player?

How about $3250.00. Plus $72.00 for a Brand New factory Mazda wing still wrapped up and never installed in the box.

Still debating on that. Thinking wheels/stereo/window tint/lightweight flywheel-pressure plate-clutch
$3500 will get me 400WHP.

Drives nice. Not a bad ride for stock. Handles nicely. Clutch is a little to rubbery for my taste.
It'll be ready for SSXIII.
