Picked it up July

Cleaned it up a bit. Got rid of the old tint. Will change out all the spark plugs, fluids and filters. Then start updating the sound system with back up camera.

Congratulations, that's a beautiful car and I love the color. What sound system do you plan on using? I'm going with an Alpine Halo 9 myself. BUT, retaining the factory sound system.

Great minds haha, I'm going with their latest model and I'd suggest the same, the 509. I just want apple car play, I think the Halo 9 really brings our cars into a more modern era, the design on these cars (If cared for) looks so fresh.
