Newbie checking in here, too.

I just posted in the intro forum, but since this will be the forum I check figured I would check in here as well. As for my car it's an 04 Catalina Blue LE 4cyl, all stock for now. My wife and I picked it up from my in-laws for 5k with 82k which is mostly hiway from Lufkin Tx to Kansas, Iowa, Northeast texas and Tyler (2hrs east of dallas where I live).
Future plans for the car include window tint (next week or so), tail light tint, 17s/18s (gonna test fit some 18x8 torque 5 w/ 35et, hopefully they will fit, that I will barrow from my sis' boyfriend), some sort of filter/intake, and a nice exhaust (saw an 04 Camry w/ HKS exhaust on youtube and I loved it). And a stereo cuz I am not liking the factory stereo.
Other project cars I have are 95 Tbird lx 4.6 (high school car that I loved) and a 35 Chevy 3 window real steel Coupe (my one and only family heirloom).
Sorry for the long post.

Hi Wes!

[Zviator]

5k ?!?! Damn tat was a steal

U made us Camry owners feel cheap BTW

[workerant]

I thought I was under sold my Camry for $14K... but $5K.. *faint*

[WesB]

Dealership was going to give my inlaws 7k for it so we gave them my wifes 99 ex civic and 5k. Needless to say it's alot roomier and a million times better than our old civic.

Welcome to the forum!

[WesB]

Thanks guys. I've actually been browsing the board for a year or so while we were determaining if we were going to buy the car and when it finally came time for my inlaws to buy a new one, they cut a good deal (obviously).
Tomarrow morning I'm having the wheels put on my wifes car. Unfortunantly the tires are less than sastifactory, but they are only temporary until I decide if I want to keep the wheels or not. I got the wheels from my sisters boyfriend's 240 "drift" car, so the tire sizes are 235/40/18 and 215/55/18. If I keep the wheels I'm gonna go with 225/45/18s. Will try and post pics tommarow.
