Just when I.....

I'm sure it would be great fun smashing your wrist, along with your radius and ulna, on that 90-degree angled box behind the shifter as you tried to work your way through the gears. Looks like the lips on those cup holders would hit your funny bone, too. A plethora of sensations I could do without.
 
I think you guys are getting your pee too hot about these floor mats. Dealers put these plastic covers on them all the time; it's not like these mats have been sitting in the Henry Ford Museum all these years.
 
It wouldn't take too much work to get the "old man" off the car. It looks pretty clean with lower miles. Someone should save it! And Mark, I had a 2000 LS V8 with the sport package before the Navi. It's not your grandpa's Lincoln. Turn off the traction control, and it will throw the rear end out easily. Which I'm certain you have never done.;) Took me back to my Fox body GT vert days!

I concur. Actually I think the stick-on plastic is put on somewhere on the line.

Well, originally, yes, it can be. But the stuff on this car was just put on by a used car dealer. Hardly the mark of original provenance. Are they in nice shape? Maybe -- they look good. But they've had feet on them. This is not a bad thing, of course, it just precludes them from being excitement material, assuming that mats that were all original and never used would actually spark excitement. Maybe they would.
 
Oh JESUS! How could you even consider that luggage spoiler topaz thing to be good looking.

FAIL. FAIL. FAIL.

:barf:
 
I've never seen Fuel Filler Door listed as standard equipment, although I guess I've never known them to be optional. I know older cars just had a gas cap exposed, but any more to me calling the fuel filler door standard equipment, is like call the steering wheel standard, that's just assumed... Oh and this one even comes with two, yes you read right, two reverse lights...

how about the pontiac azetec? must be an option there :laugh::crazy:
 
YIKES!! I can honestly say i have not seen that SVT around here before. It was probably some Hoosier that they got it from. :laugh::laugh:

FWIW, I got my 00 from a used dealer in the same area (Dixie Highway is almost nothing but used dealers) with 77K miles for ~$5800 out the door. I dont see them selling it like it is for that price.
 
I'm actually jealous of those cup holders. But a luggage rack? The trunk already threatens to dent if you get wax near it so how would it handle a bag?

really? i wouldn't install a luggagw rack but i never thought the trunk was flimsy. now the hood on the other hand...

anyone know where that center console came from'??
 
Ok then the floor mats are no big deal,always nice to have a extra set.But what about them Jack Point Covers.I don't think a T-Green tour would look to bad with red covers.
