Thank you!
38,000 original miles at the moment and it has no history, no accidents, garaged from day one, no rust under neath , no knocks drives well
13b-REW swap would be awesome. That’s a beautiful car you got there.
thanks that would be the goal! Maybe next year ... although someone advised me to keep it stock as it is and buy a broken down high mileage one and then swap it out and sort of start from scratch which makes sense ... not sure what I want to do yet. It’s such low mileage for a 2004, and the car is mint inside and out . It was very well maintained
I would also modify a different 8. That's a car I would personally enjoy in nice weather and keep 100 percent original. It would be a car I would cherish. Having an 8 that's not as nice to start with would be excellent as you would have no regrets and would be able to do anything you want to the car without modifying a clean example. At the end of the day it's your car and you can do with it what you please. We are here for you either way.
+1^ since you have a pristine unmolested car, save it and build another one. The first one I purchased for myself (daughters was first) was also a low mile 04 winning blue gt. I have made sure to leave it original and purchased others to play around with.
Car looks superb. Congrats on the buy. Since it's the subject of the day, I think you can do with the car what you want, haha. It might be nice to keep it stock since that's such a pretty car, but like you said, you've got a magnaflow exhaust and an intake on it now. Not "stock" anymore. If you want a different engine in a pristine, low miles chassis, that seems like a good plan to me.
