my family has a home in 94010 and did my undergrad in Eugene OR. That's a very rewarding drive, miss it to bits, lots of hwy patrol on i5 though. congrats on the car, she's a beauty. i like that interior actually, gives it a bit more exotic appeal.

Your article on the drive home was enjoyable.

Talk to Alex at SharkWerks (Fremont) about the EVOMs setups. They are very knowledgable on Pcars and a great bunch of guys to work with.

Oh, forgot to warn you... once the mod bug gets in, they don't get out.

What does it make? Their #'s are accurate on everything else. I have had my cars tuned and dynoed at their AZ facility and had them dynoed at other locations after and the #'s were dead on. Please post your experience and who you dealt with.

Yeah you need to watch your wallet! These guys will infect you with the mod bug and you will transform into a power hungry monster!

I told myself when I bought the car that I would NEVER mod it, and 2.5 years later I'm going for what Oak would call "Mad Power"! LOL! Thanks 6speed!

Thanks for the warm welcome guys... This seems like a great forum and I'm looking forward to hopefully meeting a few of you that are local to the San Francisco Bay Area.

I will be posting more pictures and my continuing impressions of the Car.

The color combo is gorgeous.

Nice car and I recognize it as being Tommy's old car as well! Last time I saw it though (going back about 3 years I think?) it had stock turbos, exhaust, programing etc... so it was more in the 580hp (to the crank) range. So unless something else has been done

Beautiful car - love the color combo.

There are a number of local guys with P-Cars that get together periodically. Check out the Nor Cal section for some of these - hope to see you at one of them.

As far as I have been told, this Car is stock.. If you have some information about it, I would be really interested .... I have actually talked to you in person about the 650 HP upgrade and having suspension work done. If you need the VIN # , I can give it to you. It's always nice to get history on a Car when you buy it and I would love to know more about this particular Car, if in fact it is the one you think it is.

Thanks...
