Default Out with the old, In with the new

Hey everybody,
As of two days ago, I became the new owner of a 2000 Silverstone. It is an absolutely amazing car and I am so glad I finally got one. I had been actively searching for about 5 months till I found this one on Easter sunday. I went and looked at it that afternoon, had it inspected the next day and then drove it home. My previous (and first) car was a 1994 Integra that I just put on the market. I got into the rice phase for a while so that will explain that car. Don't worry, I don't have any plans for a rice body kit like my last car. I plan to keep the S perfectly stock (we'll see how long that lasts). Anyway, enough talk, more pictures, right?...

First the old...










And now the new...

Thanks guys. Looking at the pictures of my old car, I am so glad that I am out of the ricer phase.

Can anyone confirm that my car has been lowered? It looks pretty low to me, but when it was on the lift for the pre-purchase inspection, I saw that it had stock shocks and what looked to be stock black springs. They might be Eibachs or some other black spring, but I am not sure.

Yeah the top was a huge draw for me... and the fact that it has 33,000 miles. I absolutely love the top and will very rarely take it off. Thanks for the warm welcomes.

Your car looks like stock height judging from the 1-2" gap in the wheel well. This car is suppose to be lower compared to others. I have only about 5 inches of clearance.
