Just wondering if this was anyone who posts here. If so, nice car!  Was going west on Shawnee Mission tonight around 9pm. Pulled out of mission center mall in my silver CSVT and found a black E1 CSVT in front of me. I followed for a while, got on I-35 South, was behind until he took the 69s exit. The windows looked tinted, couldn't see much of the person in the car. Also while following I noticed the SVT logo on the back right side of the car. Mine on my 2000 is on the left. Was it on the other side on the 98s or 99s? -CtrAltDel

Sorry, wasn't me.  But, I also had a Black SVT sighting this afternoon 1:30ish. Intersection of Lackman and College (111th). All 4 windows tinted fairly dark, no noticeable mods other than that. You were going South to Santa Fe Trail Dr., I was going North to Lackman. I waived, but with both cars being tinted it was hard to see through. Didn't mean to barge in on your post, but with the same topic, I figured you wouldn't mind. We still need to get together sometime, maybe once Fishe is done with his weekly dental visits, and Robbie has his new bumper back on we can all hook up for lunch or something on a Saturday. TGI Fridays sound good?  The bad part is, I will probably have my ghetto-ass snow tires on by that time  .

Eric sell those. get some money out of those tires. sorry but if you are going to degrade the SVT by putting those rims and tires on there take off the side skirts and bumpers so no one knows that is a SVT. thanks.

Not this year! My BFGs are almost toast, definately not enough tread for decent Snow traction! Don't want to buy any KDWs as I'll hopefully be getting some 17" Potenza S-03s this spring ! You have a second car to get you through the snow, with 4wd I might add! Unless I can find a cheap beater in the next few days, the snows are going on until at least February. Heres to traction in the snow!

I'm getting my new dash put in saturday. Dealer finally called yesterday and said they got it in. Mine is warped pretty bad so I'll be happy to have that fixed. If I can meet you guys anywhere on saturday it might be without my SVT unless it is in the evening. I also might get my snows on that day if UPS figures out how to get them to me by then. As of yesterday 3 of my tires were sched. for delivery and one was on its way to california!! Then I missed them anyway since they didn't show up until AFTER 7PM  I got dunlop m2 snows but they're gonna be steel rims It was either pay extra for the alloys or pay extra for the performance snows but not both... -CtrAltDel
