I love this thread. It makes me sad that I have seen 2 nice two tone coupes at the junkyard near me. One was the butter colored yellow and grey, and the other one was 2 shades of grey. Oh and there was also one with the light blue/silver on top w/ grey on the bottom. So that makes 3 nice coupes w/ nice paint that i've seen that have since been crushed

. One day I'll start to save them from certain doom and buy a few shells.

Mad props to the two-toners

Miss the Green/Grey.

When I sold the car, I sold it to a Japanese kid. He kept saying "Initial D mitai"
Which means "looks like Initial D." Up to this point I knew nothing about Initial D. Asked my wife later and she told me it was some car anime...I was like, don't you think I might like to have known about this....?

Took the car from CA18DE to CA18DET back in 1998. Not sure if she's still on the road or not...prolly not

Yuri, I'll have to get back to you on this one...but the lavender frost paint code is lg1, if i remember correctly, thats my paint code. I can find out tomorrow (christmas) when i go over to my grandparents where i am storing the car.

Yah the wheels are teh fail. They came on the car so I haven't really gotten around to change them. I've been lazy on getting wheels. lol Need to do the 5 lug conv. to increase my selection of wheels. I feel once I get wheels, bricks, JDM OEM aero all around, roll the fenders and lower it more I'll be set. Oh yah almost forgot, motorswap as well. lol

Thanks for the compliments though. Gotta keep the the two tone alive!
