Cars look really good! And if that is your house in the background, then that looks great too! Wow!

Well -
I did "test drive" it for a year or so. Had to make sure the "bugs" were worked out. :)

So is this your daughter's car now, or still "yours"?

Yep. Located in Madison. Right by the Rocket City.
The daughter lets me fill it up with gas and do all the maintenance. Snuck it out for a early morning test drive last Sunday. In my defense I had just replaced the front control arms and bushings.
That top 22mm bolt is just fun fun.

Your daughter has one sweet ride then. Glad to see she's learned to drive a manual!

Yep. One out of two driving manual is ahead of the game. The other one refuses to consider a manual.
Got the manual child interested in autocross. Her driving instructor(diplomats protection driver) got her and me hooked. Went to our first event last weekend.
