I have continental ExtremContact, and I love it. I dove it in the blizzard last winter, it worked great.

congratulations... i've had my silverchrome 6 mt since 3/03..the more i drive it.. the more i learn to like it. ... you can't say that for my 00 blk jetta vr6 (piece of sheeit) and my 02 RSX (sorry..no more honda products for me).

BTW.. get those continental sportcontacs tires from tirerack, they are exceptionally good tires and reasonably priced ....they also balance well on the Zs stock rims. i got those on mine.

Yep, when I had my 2003 Performance Z I always thought I had 17 inch wheels as well. I finally looked and found out I had 18's. Those were the days.

You should have asked around the forum to switch with someone before trading it in. I would have even driven to Colorado. Before I get flamed, take note that I just had to replace my windshield after attempting to go surfing. The Z simply isn't practical like the Evo.

Mac: I wouldn't want anyone I know to have that Evo. It had problems. Think the tranny was starting to go out and the transfer case was leaking.

Well if you wanted a car with a strong tranny, its a good thing you got the Z...NOT! I already had mine replaced. To rub it in, let me show you what you could have had:

So Kcobean: would you rather have a bone stock '03 Touring, or my pictured (and modded) Track Model? Theordically, he could have had either.

So are you selling your car, and you're comment is implying that instead of the touring he could have bought your track? In theory he could have had a Ferrari if it was presented and within his budget. Guess I just don't get the point of your post...

And to answer your question, between the touring, your track and my track, I"ll take mine:



Since we're "comparing".

Congrats and welcome! I was thinking about powdercoating my 03 Performance 18"s but I hear it's pretty expensive.
