I purchased it from BJ Motors dealing with Bernie has always been a great experience. I do know a bit of history on the car but am wondering if anyone knows more? I sent RSI an email asking for the build sheet with no response. I do have the listing from the sale. But its a lot to list.

Did this have BIG chrome rims? I feel like someone else purchased this car not too long ago, then is showed back up in BJMotorz inventory. Be interesting to get the scoop on that. Although, it might be a different car..?

FWIW. The car looks SOOO much better now. Ive never been a fan of the DUB edition wheels on Gen2's. Looks ridiculous. That car right there mgiht be one of the best Looking Gen2s Ive seen in a while. COngrats..

Hey no offense man. Thats why they make Chocolate and Vanilla ice cream, right? :D. I have a 2008 Coupe with Chrome wheels on it. But on the Bumble Bee, my preference would be the black wheels.

Anyway, I guess it is the same car. Its had a few owners between this site and the other site. Im guessing someone will chime in on the cars background.

Yes it was for sale twice at BJ motors. I was not in the right place at the time to get it the first time. But the second time I saw it I knew I had to get it.

As Blown408 said, it did have the those wheels on it. They werent to my taste either and I had them off the bee within days of buying it.

Blown, they do look good on your GTS. Im glad you are happy with them :)

Blown408, What suspension do you have on that, the ride height looks good? I had to raise mine because I was scraping too much.

Hey they are the eibach springs, no caps and low mile OEM shocks. Ride hide is about perfect, I think eventually I will do some coilovers but for now this works perfect.

I dont have any kind of dyno sheet to know what power its currently putting down. But it should be around 600 to the wheels.

Now it has the Gen 4 six spokes powder coated black.

On the spray I believe it made 850wrhp and 1148rwtq. I don't know what it makes on just motor though. I well have to find out and post it next time I'm home. .
