Mine is on my myspace page, Im not sure how to post pics on this board since I dont think [img] format doesn't work. Which color are you planning on repainting it, Ill be doing bodywork/paint on mine when I get another daily driver as its my d/d right now.
When I retire I might start SE registry lol.

Very good choice man, I would have to say it kinda ticks me when someone gets one of these and paints them some other color rather than stock. Especially when they leave engine bay/jambs stock color urggg

Crap, I don't have any recent pictures of my SE on this computer.... The one in my sig is way out of date. Its lowered now and looks way better. It is also black (stock), and as I understand it, that is pretty rare.
found a picture, still not up to date. This was taken last summer right before I lowered it. So just imagine its dropped 1.5"

I never took pics of my red SE. I should have after I spent a day cut-waxxing it. Oh well, I know the guy who bought it.

Thanks a lot. Unfortunately its hardly ever that clean. I also have the same problem as jbud though, it doesn't look quite as good in person.

I had just gotten the car this day. I washed it and by the time I got here it was filthy again.
I am most proud of the condition of the interior.
Like everyone else the body is only average. It's a 20 footer. I have already decided to spend the money to have the body done in the spring. There are a few things that need to be addressed, but the car is in very good shape for its age. I plan to own this car for ever.
