Get the earlier model .. Has more goodies like the electronic suspension...
But, just don't try to wire up anything too it... A mate that had one, had nothing but problems when he tried to put in alarms and such .. Everytime something was added, there was a major electrical problem ...

nah getting the 97 mk2 model i like the shape, lights and wing more than the other 2 models.. Also the earlier ones that are in the country are so overpriced and high kms for the same money i can import a new model one with low kays.

You dont think that was still from all the shots we had & the magical beer carpet ride home from Darling harbour that night?
