my DD, another toy
figured i'd post up my new DD to see what you guys think.
i've been into saturns for years and i got out when i bought my 00 formula. a little over a month ago i hydrolocked the engine, so i needed a new DD. i found a 99 saturn SWP on CT craigslist. i took the train up, got temp plates and drove it back down. http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...wayz/rhd-1.jpg http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...wayz/swp-1.jpg the first step was tint and the bumpers were off to get painted http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...z/DSC02618.jpg painted bumpers, side skirts and door handles. dropped 2" http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...z/28bab7fd.jpg new wheels http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...z/DSC02775.jpg and here is the real money shot http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g2...ewayz/swp3.jpg yup, she's right hand drive. i love it. it such a different car, and i love having something no one has ever seen before. there were between 200 and 300 made a year. so i have 1 of about 1000 ever produced. plans are to do a 5spd dohc swap. and then to turbo it. its not gonna be fast, but i'm shooting for 13.5 at 105-106. plenty of fun for the street with a DD. |
I've never met someone that has a thing for modding Saturns. Cool, but a station wagon? I would have gone with a SC.

Not really a fan of the wheels, but otherwise it looks pretty cool

dude your crazy :lol: mid 13's in a saturn wagon would be pretty cool. not liken the wheels either though.

I believe he had like two or three 12 second Saturns before. I don't get whats so shocking about someone modding a Saturn. People mod way worse car's like pinto's or ford focus's.

http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...0/DSCN1242.jpg http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j2...0/DSCN1243.jpg Although I modded mine to be a more comfortable and useful daily. It has a tow hitch, built in bluetooth setup, Monroe shocks and struts and upgraded sway bar ends, some sound deadening, new tires going on this week, and a Yakima roof rack to be installed eventually. Although 15.8 @ 88 on a hot summer day is impressive for what she is. 74k miles and counting. I have more mods planned for her as time becomes available including more sound deadening, 18" wheels off the redline package, and leather seat covers |
That things mean! :mrgreen:
|
looks cool!! i have seen some U.S Mail people drive these before!! is that why GM made them?

Is it true you need to take an exam to be a licensed right hand driver? |
there was a new 4dr wrangler on ebay not long ago in RHD
|
im a huge jeep guy and if you go to a website called postal pete i believe he can make you a jeep in right hand drive....its pretty cool but expensive a bit but worth it to have something different.....
