All Grown-ed up!!! [Dial-up...RUUUNNN!!!]

Well, my little brother is coming up on finally getting his lisence and I've finally settled into the fact my 8 is becoming my daily driver, and he's got a job all far away and such and desperatly needs a car. So I finally gave my old beat her up car to him for one hell of a good price.

Today I decided to get some pictures of them together as I don't have any and they turned out kinda decent. Check it out. Two parts...

Old car - 2000 Ford Escort Zx2 S/R (only 1,000 yellows made in 2000 - made a handful in 99 as well, but like 200 or something)

New car- See signature!

Note - apologize for the terribly boring background, we did this as an at the moment type thing and didn't have time to drive anywhere special.

AND... although I'm sure it's not a new concept, if anyone else wants to post pics of their old rides vs. their new ones feel free. Hell photoshop two of them together. If I wanted to make this a three way match I'd have to photoshop in a 1993 Mecury Topaz.... Oh that's right, someone out there just wet themselves out of jealousy I'm sure!!!

Looking good. I'd never seen a zx2 in yellow.

By the way Marvin Rock, I sold my orange corners so you can use my thread as proof if you want to go ahead and try to sell them.

Nothing I like more then normal looking pics in high res

Marvin, congrast on the new ride and you are quite a nice brother

For the most part though, there's really no need to ever post pics that big on the internet, plenty of tools out there to help you resize

Surprisingly enough I DID resize them. My camera takes pictures in like 1600x1450 or something crazy like that. I cropped them and lowered the quality and they still came out that way. Apologies, I'll try and make them smaller next time. I use photoshop to resize.

Fabro - thanks for the info, I planned on posting tonight actually.

xDeeDubbx - I was waiting for the wing jokes. Didn't take long.

I was going to say something, but I figured why bother at this point.

Tint is 35% front 20% rear. VA legal is 50/35, but that wasn't dark enough for me so I risked it and so far so good since November
