Definitely walkin the chalkline of being ricer/tacky. The interior red pieces added are definitely not my thing. You and the previous owner have a common taste though I guess. Still runs like a champ... Never got why people wanted to make their taillights look like a 1990 GT Mustang though..

It's a cool car. Definitely attention-grabbing and nicely executed. I really don't get the "ricer" comments.

I personally couldn't do something THAT red - every bright colored car I've ever owned has been a huge CHP magnet.

Especially considering some of the hideous aftermarket wheels guys put on these cars.
