I had to have an Evoke, the colour was main criteria (funnily enough i settled on an auto which I've never had before).

Not that i don't like the other colours... (he says quickly!) Red Hot was my fall back colour, but I've had black and white cars before an I'm not quick enough to keep them clean. However they all look gorgeous once they are clean and polished.

I'm looking to fit the wortec so mine can sound a good as it looks..

Thanks again for the responses people, i really do appreciate them.

Yep the exhausts are expensive for the VXR8, but it's just too darn quiet without and i want some noise. I going to be hard pressed to keep my hands in my pockets as i started on the modding scene about 15 years ago with my Saab 99 when i fitted i Saab 900 Turbo engine. I think every car since has had something done to it. Be it an exhaust, cam(s) and/or remaps.

Oh and the reason for VXR8 Blue is that Blue is my Red Border Collies name (ahh ain't that cute) and also my normal login, just on PH it was already taken.

Well i'm aware that Thunder Road is big thing here, but what other meets are there in the year? I in the far west of Cumbria, often travel to Bracknell (berks) and Kinghorn (fife) and the surrounding areas and would love to join in on some meets sometime.
