The one closest in the pic. How many of the 72 Comp Orange Verts are low mile, bone stock, never modded? This one I damn sure should've never let go..

Ok, not anything really special about this one. Just loved this car for some reason. Had a crazy wild paint job that was in autorama back in the day. It’s for sale now but not in the same condition.

Here’s my list of regrets

91 GT. Never had the chance to mod her and ended up selling her within 6 months

06 GSXR 600. Loved that bike. Was a hoot on backroads and the track.

94 GT. First Mustang and I beat the ever loving snot out of it.

07 CBR 1K. This bike scared the crap out of me a bunch of times and I should have died a during a few of those episodes.

Nice.. i cut my teeth on DSM's.

Were you one of those tuning technologies guys?

Do you mean if my car was tuned by tuning technologies? I had it tuned by a few places but, the last guy to tune it was Alfred from tuning technologies

It was an fp black car. On low boost because I didn’t have the fuel system for higher boost (28lbs+)

Yep. Alfred is the owner and his wife Jen.

My buddy Chris opened that place with Alfred. Chris sold his share to Alfred when he deployed for the Army.

Alfred used to be a Vw guy when the shop first opened but learned to tune the Mitsubishi stuff pretty quick.....largely due to Chris.

Regret not buying my Buddy’s baby. Just a lowly 04 GT with 183k miles but as shown in amazing shape. It was in much better shape than my current 33k mile Mach 1. Now it’s be beat the ever loving shit out of it, engine is hurt, wrecked, body damage, neglected out of this world, and trashed interior, due to new owner. Makes me sick.

Wow that’s really cool. Yeah he tuned my car a few times. Both he and Jen were very nice people.

I also knew the girl that bought Jens old Evo 8. Lol

i support this - of course all your cars are nice
Thanks.

Yea, it blew my mind when you sold that. You ever consider getting another one?
I want another, just don't know if I have the patience to address of all of its shortfalls.
I haven't considered another one. I am just concentrating on my TT/GT CS at the moment.
I understand that. It takes quite a bit of work to make them hold the power properly. Lots of supporting mods. Honestly, the newer platforms are much better and require much less to make them fast. I do however miss the rawness, sound and look of the 04.

Where is the like x 1,000,000!!! That car was beautiful
Thanks Justin.

FYI for newer SVTP members Kevin's Terminator was the cleanest one on the fricken planet. The pioneer of exhaust polishing.
Sadly most don't remember my old car now. It's a different time.

Nice. I want to get a DSM to mess around in, maybe an auto to drag race.
