    How about a 95' Lexus ES300 bought for $1,500 with 125k on the clock.
    Pretty much fully loaded: ABS, speed sensitive steering, leather. All the goodies lexus comes with. And the best part PROJECTORS

    So far everything i had in the regal has been moved over to the lexus. Stereo ( used the same speaker sizes) HID's, V1, Satnav, remote start / keyless.

    It is a just a bit smaller then the regal but i love driving this thing. I am still amazed at 15 years old the quality and finish is still better then anything GM i have driven, including a 08 Caddy.

    Ill still be around as i still have the Regal as the only problem with it is it needs a new trans. I might keep and rebuild one of these days or i might sell it to a scrap yard. But i will always try to be at a local meet when ever there is one.

    x3 a 1.5-2in drop on some 18s. i like black rims over silver so i'd say black, but i'm sure just about everyone else would say silver with the black.

    can't argue with the price, that's for sure. the lowering and 18's suggestion is full of win. wider tires and that thing would look really sporty
    99 GT - top swapped, S2X cam. - sadly, sold
    96 Firebird Formula - T-tops and exhaust leak. 14.26 @ 97.8 - sold
    2008 Chevrolet Cobalt SS - stock, in all of it's turbocharged awesomeness
