The previous owner must have done the helicopter mod to your car

 

Could be the roof rails? Is the sound loud?

Pretty clean Avant Chris. Great pick up! I think at one point someone rebadged the trunk and decided to put the badges back on as they're a bit off.

 

Thanks, Randy. Yeah something looked a bit off to me about those badges, but they'll be coming off this weekend anyway, so no matter

 

Looks good. Nice mileage! I missed that part! Good tune on the radio, too. Are you going to tint the windows at all? I think it makes any car look better, especially the avant.

Why does your coolant tank look empty?

Not to be all dad here, but those monster drinks are absolutely horrible for your insides

Don't forget to play with the hidden eq in the symphony radio. Link for that is in the faq sticky.

 

Danke. I dunno about that coolant tank lol. Its definitely not empty but it looks really grungy inside gonna swap that for a nice shiny white one soon

I do want to tint the windows, but can't decide on 50% or 35%. had 50 in the sedan and it was nice but I think darker would look better. Technically, 50% is the darkest legal in VA, but they let you by with 35%. Anything darker than that is asking for a ticket, however

 

Yeah it's personal pref. I prefer a more mild tint. I have 56%.

Does it look like there is just water in the coolant tank then? Should be pink, or at least green!

 

lol I didn't know 56% even existed. I checked the coolant at about midnight last night, just to make sure there was somethin in there. Couldn't tell what color it was, but thats on the list for this weekend as well.

 

Just picked up an eBay short shifter for $23. I love the interwebz

 

Alright, let's see.

Car looks super clean, I'm disappointed you got silver again. I'm proud of you for saying "wicked sharp" though, so it's all good.

Can't wait to see this thing at the next meet, you'll be the only Avant unless Alex comes.

 

Yeah I wasn't thrilled with another silver car either, but i'm still really happy with it. Btw, the center arm rest lid is pretty jacked up, how tough was yours to recover? any issues with using suede? The interior is a bland sea of shades of brown/tan, I was thinking of recovering the door cards, arm rest (and eventually the pillars and headliner) with black suede to break it up a little bit. thoughts?
