- Background & Plans
- My car started its life as a GT premium with nearly every option but Recaros and a glass-roof, but it has quickly turned into a project to test my girlfriend's patience with me. Jokes aside, I want to see how far I can safely push the limits of a daily-driven car, while also keeping it inconspicuous on the outside. The reason my cage is competition orange, is because I impulsively bought it off a stranger (and now good friend), who was converting his Boss 302 into a track-only car and I loved how it looked with Gotta Have It Green. It oozed tropical vibes and the 1970's, which is why I have dubbed my car, 'The Sublime Lime'.
