I have been browsing the forum for a few months now, finally went and made an account. I've had my car for 6 months now and I couldn't be happier. I've put my first 5000 miles on it already and I'm just starting to get some ideas for my first modifications. (Don't worry, I know an 18 year old getting their hands on one of these cars is normally the end of the world, but I'm no suburban kid with a Honda. I know what I have and I have a plan that doesn't involve a single can of plasti-dip or drilling into a single body panel.)


As it stands the car is bone stock with only 64,000 miles and everything has been kept up with perfectly, I bought it from an old man who bought it brand new and treated it like a classic corvette for its whole life, and I don't plan to stop babying it.


Check out my pics and tell me what you think!


Looks like marketing material IMO, thought it was kinda silly at first but I've grown to like it.

This one is dramatic and I parked at this angle specifically for this photo

Right after a bath

Still dripping (:

Lmao, it's a reference to the movie Kill Bill. Thought it would be funny with the yellow car and all, but most people don't seem to get it.

Lol is the truck a pretty famous reference from the movie? I've seen the movies but not enough times to automatically make that connection

Very nice and clean. Lucky find there, welcome to the rally yellow club

edit: just my opinion, I just noticed its a 05 from the door badges. I know everyone tends to hate that and removes them but being its such a clean car id keep them there. Gives the car a certain character being the first year model made.

Thanks for treating this car right.
And I agree that sticker has to go.

I got it as soon as I read it but remember that the guy who owned the truck didn't do so well in the movie.
