Re: show me
Well, the bone-headed dealer that sold the car to the previous owner put their logo and whatnot on the back bumper, smack in the middle right above the license plate. I'm accustomed to dealers putting their vinyl decals on cars. My motto is if they're not paying me for advertising, their name comes off the car.
So over the weekend I got out the trusty propane torch to warm up the vinyl and make it pliable to come off. Sure, I know, this is where all you guys start going "oh no... oh no...." Surprise. I bet you thought I melted the bumper or something. Nope. It was then that I realized the dealer had their logo PAINTED on the darned car!  I will not be doing any business with a dealer in Houston that starts with an H and ends with an ovey. Rats! I'm hoping it will buff off easily enough. Oh wait... you asked for something I'm proud of. Nevermind.

Re: show me
Wow! Nice ride! I have always thought that was a ZR1 on those MFA pumps! I see your car frequently, they should have included a photo of the engine!
