Ok, here is the actual machine you will be getting, I am not posting the price of the vehicle yet, but remember this sale is to benefit the widow and not just the usual sale. I think a raffle may still be in the works, but due to the lack of enthusiasm and interest generated so far, I am a little doubtful a raffle will take place, I hope I am proved wrong in this case. Here is a list of obvious mods and the ones I'm aware of. As you can see I have the car in the lowered position, I figured out how to manipulate the settings on the computer to adjust it like I want. I'll be more than happy to show the new owner how to do it until they can get a new control device installed. It's pretty cool to be able to set the height where you want. I could set it a little lower but I'm scared the tires will rub the fender wells, so this is as low as I'm willing to go right now.
The exhaust sounds great, the best mod next to the Cobra Rims...in my opinion. The gears make this car absoulutely scream up to 60MPH. You can brake the tires loose for about 50' + and then as soon as it shifts into 2nd gear the tires break loose again for about a half second. I've never been challenged before in my mark, I go out one day in this thing and some adult in a Honda Civic complete with fart can revs his teeny little motor and cuts out at the red light. I let him have it knowing the next light would be red as well. Now full of confidence the cocky sucker readies (spelling?) himself for another victory. Standard MarkVIII posture OD off, Trac off, slam the accelerator to the floor as soon as the light goes green, leave the above mentioned 50' loose wheels and put a look of sheer terror on this guys face. As second gear kicks in and the rear fishtales in triumph, He decides to turn at the next light as opposed to face me at the next light. I know this forum has nothing to do with racing, but I thought it would be a good selling point
and it really happened! Oh and in case anyone was wondering, the Civic was blue, no punn intended.
