About “Mia”
This car has been sitting in my garage for 3 years. I have flip flopped this car to the point of insanity. When I bought this car I had to keep the rpm's up cause the alternator didn't work. The exhaust was off the car too so it was very loud and everyone saw it coming down the block lol. It was pretty funny cause the kids were all going crazy. They said it sounded like a fast and furious car and some asked if it was in the movie. I didn't say it was lol. I really do like this car but some times I just want to give up and sell it but when I get an offer I back out. Anyways, This car was my friends then well you know that part already. I have taken the dash out of this car 4 times. Three times cause I wanted to do something but put it back in and the first time was to swap it out for the same friend cause he used it as a parts car. That's when I fell in love with it. So here it is.

Mods for “Mia”
Haven't done much to her besides tear her down. I plan to replace the whole interior in the same color. Paint the car black. Give it a luxury look like a Benz. The style I am going after is a Luxury car look, import fuel economy, Sports car handling. So that engine in it now will be rebuilt, fuel injected, Pace setter cat back exhaust, OBX header, custom CAI, Jet performance tuner, K-sport coil overs. Good set up and a killer look.
