Of 384 sold , some schmuck in my area also just bought himself a DBP R32. Had the fiancee confused the other day when she thought she saw me coming out of Greenstone when I was supposed to be in a meeting :



He is lucky enough to have found one with the Recaro seats , but mine was still far cleaner ( even though it's dirty in the pic )

H&R front and rear sway bars & Koni Sport shocks
