Karen, that blue color is known as Midnight Blue, if I'm not mistaken, hehe  It's one of my favorite pre-98 'tour colors, second only to champagne. My car has this color, or at least a variation to it. It's beautiful
EDIT: Uf, I was close - it's Moonlight Blue! Lance himself has it!

I put on my winter wheels as soon as the temps dropped into the low 50's. SO3's aren't so sticky in the cold weather... I miss them dearly though.

$4k for a car that is 7 model years old and retailed for less than $15k brand new? You gotta be nuts. The resale on Contiques sux, remember. Offer $1,500.

Yup- that's the color! It's beautiful!  It even has good rims on it! And new tires (well, they look new). It's an automatic...wouldn't mind having one of those around again (since both the P5 and the SVT are stick). One good thing about this place is that every week some cars drop $1000...we've found that in a few different ones now! Pretty weird! So, if I wait long enough, it will be $999! Then, I'll buy it!!!

I have focus wheels i got of ebay to put my snows on.I'm only putting them incase i'm somewhere and it starts to snow  .The goal is not ot use it that much this winter,lucky the fire station is down the street nice short walk. Even though it's late in the season i got some E1 wheels and kumo 712's to replace my 15" stockers!!I'm hoping to get another tour this summer for the winter and for my son to start driving  .I know one tour he won't drive  .

Just checked last night, and the blue tour that I was talking about is $3595...not sure if it went down in price, or if I remembered it incorrectly! Either way, it's still too expensive for us!

I have my stock 16" Cougar wheels and a set of all-seasons I got out of the WantAd for $70. With the big-ass profile on em I'm set for a Rally course.
