yes, it would be easy to mistake it for a new car if you didn't recognize the body style being soon to be 2 generations old. It had 2 prior owners which both kept it mint.

when I take into account the lighter wheels and exhaust the car sits right at 100 lbs under stock weight...time to find another 100. I plan on getting gt3 seats but the car has stock sport seats so they aren't as heavy as the full power seats so it won't save too much. and no, I'm not going on a diet! I am a healthy 6'2 at 180 lbs

the goal is to overpower all the engine/road noise when desired while keeping weight down. That factory bose setup was def heavier.

I've messed with a few car stereos in the past and I have to say this was an interesting one. If anyone wants to do this, my recommendation is don't hilarious
only reason I took this on was because I have NO other speakers in the car; no rear speakers, no subs.
How does it sound? LOUD AND CLEAR! very crisp accurate sound even at high volume.
for the product models, refer to my mod list earlier in this thread.
