I have to based on principle, just kidding man, expecially seeing this car in person makes me wanna give it to you even more, even though I still think a 2.2 featured car is in order, the SC's take all the glory , but youve got my vote!

I absolutely love the Michelin's. Very responsive and they grip like King Kong holding the lady in the white dress at the top of the Empire State building!!!

Thank everybody for all your compliments. I may have some stiff competition coming this month.
I'll be upgrading my pictures as this month rolls along.

Thank you. I know how ya feel. If I had a 2.2 It would look very simular to the one I have now.
My father tried to talk me into getting a 2.2. My response was... If I can afford an SS/SC, Then doggonit I'm going to get an SS/SC. Here's hoping I get the votes I need.

Thank's a bunch!!
I try not to follow the crowd too much, than my car will look like everybody elses. I just took off the rear bow tie. I think the other ones are pretty tasteful so I left them alone.

You always have to have a little color thrown in, or else it would look TOO plain. The red is not overly done, but just right.
Besides, I don't ride around with my hood popped open, and the red brake pads peeking out through the black spokes set the wheels off very nice. (tried silver and black, didn't look right at all with the wheels)
I'm not here to satisfy the masses, but to satisfy enough to get car of the month.
Thanks for the opinion and the compliments my man, and the vote!!
PS. Hurry up and get those 19"!!

lol, I wasn't saying it was overdone man. I was just saying that in my opinion, it didnt look right. But thats just me. I understand the concept of having the red calipers to give it some more flare.........both my girlfriend's '05 Tiburon SE V6 and my close friend Eric's '06 WRX came stock w/ painted red calipers w/ the manufactuer logo on them. I guess it give its a sporty edge........but I dunno, its just not me. Not saying it looks bad, just saying that I wouldn't have done it. But that dosen't mean you shouldn't have done it, lol. Don't worry man, your car looks amazing and you don't need to change a thing.

The 19"s will be on come beach time hopefully, which for me is July 15-22. Right now im just waiting on one of my bosses at Pepsi to give me the $500 for my stock 2.4SS wheels/tires, and my girlfriend is buying her Shark Racing LED tailights and Tanabe DF210 springs for the Tib before she buys my wheels, so it'll at least be a month or two. 19"s and the tires that go w/ them arent cheap! But im in no rush.....my 18" Enkei's look just fine for now.

While I wait for the BIG chunk of change needed for the 19"s however, im gonna spend a little bit of $$$ and get my windows tinted and install my CA floor brace. That'll hold me.
