Yeah, It is REALLY clean inside and out, even the engine bay, which was a major plus to me, and I like the cloth in it a lot, much better than my GXE's. Hah, Yeah the Auto was a downfall but I loved the car, and hey, when the Auto poops out I can always go VLSD-5

It came with SE rims but they were not the shiny brushed aluminum, and they were chipping away and looked like GARBAGE... so I took the halfway decent one's off my GXE and put them on there. I kind of like the look better anyway.

The car is nice but that wing is just yuck! Hope you haggled the seller down 'cause of that wing, or at least hit them in the head for putting it on there...

That sub is pretty hood-rich, too...

Congratulations and "Welcome to the VE club".

EXTREMELY pristine appealing "ride".

I think something is wrong with the license plate bulb ( should be brighter).

Best of luck and enjoy!

It needs a black interior and it'd be perfect (minus the wing of course and put the sub where it belongs...)

Very nice though! Im glad it runs alot better with the new maf. GL with it.

GXE Wheels and interior plus the wing =

If you hadn't shown the engine shot, I'd have called
I dunno man, it may be clean but it just ain't right. I haven't seen a VE that wrong in... ever.

the whole package just seems wrong.
The color, the interior material, the wing, the wheels, it just all seems wrong to me.

What's wrong with the interior material Brian, it's velour...And in excellent condition, I might add...would you prefer maroon? Admittedly, the color combo isn't my favorite, but it is in great shape...

If I were to take a picture of the Sawblades it came with you'd do the same; trust me And I happen to like the GXE rims better than sawblades, I think it gives the car a more classy look.

For the interior, I love it... stays cool(er) in the summer with the lighter colors, hides dirt (not that my obsessive compulsive as* has to worry about that) and the velour is much softer and more comfortable than my GXE.

As for the winggg..... Just something I'll have to deal with until I can find a nicer one. (Hah, but it is kind of fun because all the ricers screw with me now)

edit** It's not a sub, just a little midrange speaker with a tweet, The rear speakers aren't very good so until I get my amp fixed (car came pre-ran with all necessary wires to hook up amp) and I can put my real sub in the back...that speaker has to make up for it.

It's not that I don't like Velour, my van has it, as does my parents malibu.
But for a VE, it's tweed for me. Tweed wears better IMO.

and wayne, you're just jealous. though some punk in a truck backed into my grill over the weekend

Hah, yeah... Although now I'm looking for a nice looking aftermarket spoiler, doesn't have to be stock. Just haven't decided yet.

Pretty cheap was $2,000 with 139,000 miles on the car.

I wish I had a sunroof. Nice clean car, mine came to me looking that clean too. Lucky find and I don't mind the spoiler (something I want too). My kids would not like speakers by the feet, mine are speaker boxes side by side and 15" sub in the big trunk Good find!

Dude if you're talking about the daytona (black max I saw in OH) thats not tweed like I told ya when I first went in it, its just decorated plush with lil grey/black dots.

Anyway, dude congrats on your first VE! All you gotta do now is just keep the green VG shell and transfer the engine and tranny into it along with some other VE parts and you can rename yourself to MyGreenMax93
