We saw this car at Mike Raisor's Pontiac in Lafayette and it looked very nice. By the way, that is were I bought my 92 Firehawk.

Just wondering if you purchased the car.

I haven't gotten it yet. The car is at Bob Rohrman Honda. I did go look at it tonight and have everything approved for it but my wife is against the purchase so I am working on changing that because it's a beauty.

The car we saw at Mike Raisor looked very similar to this car, but that was a few months ago. I don't recall the number of the car.

Hopefully you can convince your wife to approve this purchase. My wife and I really enjoy our Firehawks and attending the Firehawk rally in Norwalk, OH each year.

Congratulations on your purchase.

These cars are a lot of fun to drive. Hope you and your wife enjoy cruising around town in it. You should consider attending the annual Firehawk rally in Norwalk OH in August 2007. You would meet some really nice people.

Curious as to your affiliation with IUPUI? Which campus?

Enjoy your Hawk.

Looks nice. NBM looks great with Zaino. If you're not familiar, you should get some and apply after claybarring it, to get rid of the two-tone blue look. Looks like the dealer or seller put wax on, so you'll want to strip all that off first.
