Very Nice! Is that a new blue? Looks a lot darker than the normal 'orion' blue. I like it! C7 Wheels look great with that color.
I love the Bi-Xenons, and the wood trim is very nice with the lighter interior color!
Welcome to the club! Better get some winter tires right away

ok...
ok, this is my humblest humblest opinion, The xenon looks like a monster on the coupe and the wood is just plain ugly. Sorry to say that but just can't help it
. Anyways, congrats on being one of the first bi-xenoned coupe. The wheels looks dope and the sills are just plain awesome with the color. BTW, your steering wheel looks fat (fat like big). What package is that in?

Congrats! Hey I spot the little badges on the front fenders. Definitely something to break up the monotony of the sides...a nice touch!

Agree- how can wood be ugly -- it's classy.
Truelove, you'll love the Capri as it changes in different lighting. Purplish in bright light, navy and almost black in other lighting. Looks great!

very nice...those wheels look excellent !!!!!
wood trim looks great too - too bad they didn't include it on the door as well...like the sedan.
congrats on one of the first with BI-XENONS on a coupe!
nice car

The wood trim looks great... You won't find geniune wood trim on other "hatchbacks." LOL!
I am so glad you love your car truelove79! Is that a Bose emblem I see on that speaker grill in the door? How do you like the memory seats?

man, how do you guys do it. how do you go everyday without getting a headache from worrying about someone dinging or scratching your car. i can't take it. i just want to build a wall around it in the parking lot. i need armor on it like the batmobile or something. i know that i shouldn't let the car own me, but i can't help it especially this early in it's life. how do i get my mind off of it. 
i'm just kidding (sort of), i can take it. i'm just very picky about things like that.

I take my mind off dings on the car by worrying about things like: "Will stay employed through this recession?" "Is this friggin H2 going to stop before he plows into me?" "What is Santa going to bring me for Christmas?" "What's my plan for world peace?"
