Aussie Mk3 Count

[KKK VR6]

An then soon to be replaced

[patmould93]

Location: Melbourne, VIC
Model: VR6 Colour Concept (manual)
Year: 1995
Mods: Stock as a rock unless you count personalised plates and white badges. Even the horrible stock stereo is in... however coming up soon will be the full stereo (Sony headunit, Rockford Fosgate splits in front, coaxials in back, MB quart 4.125 amp, Pioneer sub). The plans after that are coilovers, catback exhaust and cold air intake once I get out of year 12 at the end of this year and start getting some money and do a bit more research on them.

Doesn't look mint mate. :p

Was before the crash ;P Anyone who saw it will agree, I like to think that I can say stuff like that now that I dont own it without sounding too arrogant, haha. Hardest pulling stock vr6 I drove out of the 15 or so I tested, basically perfect paint and an interior which didnt look a day over 3 years old... Really, I wish it never came into my hands which slammed it, flogged it, and then crashed it, and that the first car was something ratty. Ohwell. Haha Most of the good bits will live on, most of the good panels have gone to "Dark" on here, engine is going to be built up and put in my 2 door, and most of the interior is spread across the country, with the dash and associated panels going into a mk2, seats etc into my new car and other random bits and pieces to whoever bought them.

New mk3 is very ratty
