True, but the exhaust and MOMO gear is already here....

I'll work on a really loud droney exhaust and some big aerials.

hahah..
Fair enough...
How similar, or different, does the car feel compared to your old one mate...?
I know myself, I've driven a few fairlanes and they've all felt different..
Which one is/was the better car..?

Its very different to drive but obviously because I'm doing the gear changes in this one. When I bought the Black one it had already had a lot of work done to it so it's probably not fair to compare them, this one is in excellent condition and after a few little bits taken off it and added to it, it will be just as good as the black ute was.

This one will make bigger numbers though....
