nope. The Wife wanted me to sell it as just after I bought it she got knocked up. But I've been pretty content with it till now. Now just want something more baller, like heated leather seats, dvd navigation, ect... shit like that.

If his flip out screen has A/V inputs he could essentially hook up a car pc or some other device for navigation.

Yep, no audio this year. I also decided none of that crap matters to me. And, stock radios wont fall out under hard cornering/acceleration. Stock w/ components only for me this year.

Some of the blingy stuff is going for more go fast, turn fast, brake fast, etc. parts.

and the mods list:
http://homepage.duluthmn.com/~umdivx/Fo ... nature.htm

has two sets of wheels, stock 16's with Yokohama Ice Guards, and the set of 18's you see in the pics.

Its a 2001 ZX3 S2 with 111k miles 5-speed

its been driving only two winters (before I owned it, it never saw the winter) I do drive a ways for work so it does have some rock chips/sand damage, nothing major just what you'd normally see on a car that has been driven a lot.

Hit me up if your interested and see what we can work out.
