Oh, what colour? Black on black .. highly unoriginal I realize, but a classic in my mind. Mods? What are those?

I'm sure the car will do a lot better with the 6-speed, it just needs a good tranny to optimize that power. From the sounds of it (preliminary reports), the new close-ratio 6-speed is just what it needed. Ah, but I don't regret trading up for the Max, it's nice to try something new.
