    lol..thanks. i'm stripping my old system out of the corolla tomorrow. they said i gotta go pick it up and do the major work there. so i'm taking it all off tomorrow. I just may throw it into the tC..not sure yet. :) the guy said that none of the accessories have even arrived at the dealership yet..so i can't get the strut bar, exhaust, intake or anything just yet.

    Element..day time pics will come tomorrow.

    Gunam...the price with taxes, reg, gap insurance, lo-jack, etc..it all came to 21k. my payments are 350.00 a month. And my insurance only went up from 500 to 750 every 6 months.

    okay thats great. perfect starting color too, you can do so much. i almost went pale blue before deciding on the darker version. but that is a nice car, good job, that was an excellent decision and i can't wait to see more pics and what you plan to do with it.

    Call Geico now and save over 15% on car insurance!

    lmao.

    I live in VA so the insurance isn't expensive, plus I turn 25 next year and my points fall off. so its actually gonna go down next year at renewal :) If I would of still been with Progressive, they would of charged me over 1200 every 6 months. maybe even more. but i switched to Geico and saved mad money.

    You said you got 6K for your Corolla right? What year/condition was it in? I am VERY close to trading in my Corolla for an xB. I want a car with a warranty and less power to keep me out of trouble.

    In all honesty..that car was tore up. Everytime I'd do past 50mph but under 70mph, It hit 60miles as I dropped it off at the dealership to pick up the tC, the steering wheel would shake bad. The carpet was all stained up from "careless" handling of drinks. I took it in mad dirty, I had lots of scratches on the bumper from a car that backed into it, I had 2 huge deep scratches (from a bolt from a bike) all along the bottom door of the passenger side, lots of dings and dents, the door panels were broken from the time they stole the car, the radio didn't work (when they stripped my car, the cut the wrong wires so I couldn't put it back in to work right), the clock didn't work. And when they saw that car, it had all the aftermarket stuff on it. The estimated value on kbb.com was about $4900.00. so they gave me more then the car was worth..

    Damn, they must be some gracious bastards, in that case my Rolla should bring in more than 6k. I hope like hel they'll give me a good deal, but I lost my a-pillar covers. :( And my Radio has no bracket to hold it in place either, and a rod knock for the moment.
