What trim/color is it? After my best friend died in a wreck in his M3 back in '05 I was storing his red 1990 TT w/ AWS as well as a 1973 ProStreet Cuda, and have since inherited them. The 300 needs a new crank, and possibly a turbo rebuild, but once I get some money that will be the next project. I will get pics up later tonite.

No regrets really. Actually, I owned it for 2 years which is the longest I've ever kept a sports car. I really enjoyed modding it, that's what enjoyed doing the most. Obviously, it was impractical, I only drove it a couple times a month. It just sat there and I felt guilty not driving it. So I sold it before the economy took a dive and now I'm having fun modding the JEEP which I can use everyday, rain or shine, I love it!

It's a red/T-top. I have plans for it one day. A nice small block with a little turbo would be fun. This is a project that I will take my time with when I sell one of my houses one day. Not anytime soon. The car was re-painted a few months before he died. I've only put about 5K on it since 96. I went to the storage unit the other week and saw it. Still looks great. Interior is starting to look a little "couped up" looking. I haven't driven it in about geez 3-4 years now. Man time flies. I let it sit for about 3 years one time, put a new battery in it, and the damn thing fired right off after about 3 seconds of cranking. Tick for about 5 seconds and purr'd like a kitten. Here's a pic....

well, considering I just turned 26 two months ago, since i started driving at 16 I have had:

1994 Honda Accord LX 4-DR traded for a
1997 MB C-280 Sport traded for
2002 (new) Honda S2000 while owning that I had
1989 Audi 200 Turbo (winter #1)
1997 Chevy Tahoe LT (winter #2)
2003 Acura 3.2TL (winter #3) which was traded with the S2000 for
2005 Acura TL 6-Speed/Nav (new) which was traded for
2007 Jeep SRT-8 and just this winter I had and sold
1994 Jeep Cherokee Sport traded for
1996 Acura Integra which was sold a few weeks ago.

I'm at 10 cars in 10 years, the S2 I had the longest at just over 3 years. The Jeep is going on 1.5 years, and I dont plan on getting rid of it any time soon...unless they can't fix this stupid freaking tailgate issue!
