yes it is a project of mine I need to get it up and running again.It hasn't moved under it's own power in over a decade and I think it had a very rough life before I got it since the left quarter is screwed up, that whole side has a lot of filler on it and the trunk lid was bent. It also has a tow hitch for some insane reason, like why would you tow something with a sports car?

You'd love to two something with a sports car if you wanna see how fast you can go with a caravan ;) Good Luck ! Fun Fact: I own a 2004 Renault Megane with only 35k kilometers, what's more funnier is that I am the very few that have this car in my country....

Also (late) happy bday

my car is also a bit rare because it only has the performance options, no a/c no power windows no power locks it has the ws6 performance handling package with 4 wheel disc brakes limited slip diff and it had 15x8 aluminum rims
I plan on upgrading the olds 403 it came with, and backing it with a 5 speed stick, putting in a black cloth interior, upgrading the suspension, and putting in a nice stereo

I maxed out the character limit on that one :p

I've observed that the ws6 is quite rare. Special one !

Why matte black paint though? It makes it look a bit shoddy.

its not, its that faded

I can't wait for it to have a mirror finish crystal black paint.

it'll be a wile we need to fix the rust and fix some bodywork issues

My grandfather taught me that you can just paint over the rust, and sell it quickly. It is called lying. It works real well.

:|

tdev is disappointed.

but I want to keep the car and if I do that it will come back worse
a nice restored one of these is like 30k so its not like I will be getting my money back if I where to sell it since it needs bodywork an engine rebuild and a completely new interior

Holy moly, that sounds like a lot of work.

Sure does.

engine and interior aren't too bad but bodywork is by far the most time consuming

That is a pretty nice looking one, aside from the matte black paint. I would actually go for a satin dark red paint. Or metal flake with gloss.

I plan on painting it gloss black with the iconic hood bird in blue

Nice! Though I would actually go dark red, or even burgundy for the hood bird.

Dark red would be lit !

That gives me another idea! Maybe you could put some LED lights on the hood to outline the bird? That would look sick at night!

think I saw that on a 4th gen once

Were the 4th gens the really bad ones?

none of theme where really bad but 2nd and 3rd sometimes had quality control issues

I don't know much about them, I'm sorry to say.
