    Hello everyone, Some of you may know me from Cozzi Corner or elsewhere... I haven't posted much in this group recently but figured some of you may enjoy some pictures of my recent purchase. Will post pictures and videos as i figure out how to download everything
    Also, I wanted to give a big shout out to my buddy Derek (95SC) for working his magic and helping me make this purchase happen.. ?
    Ps. My 1999 Cobra also in the picture.

    Thanks everyone. This car exceeded all my expectations. What a blast to drive. Nice an quiet on the highway but has an awesome rumble when you open up the exhaust with a flick of a switch.

    Sucks that it's snowing out. Was going to take it out today for a quick cruise before I leave out for work. Just my luck lol FML

    Thanks Bro, I'm not decided what I want to do with the 99 yet. Was going to sell it so many times but somehow this car stayed with me so long (since 2007) so at this point I might just put an Auto and Solid axle in it and turn it into more of a quarter mile car. I'll let you know if I decide to sell the CCWs. I just put a fresh set of R888R tires on all 4. I think the wheels match that body style perfect. They kind of "make that car"...

    Keep me in mind about the wheels all I really need is the wheels not the tires but it’s not a deal breaker.

    Thanks. I was the cameraman when you raced Peters yellow Audi TT RS. Your Porsche pulls hard.
    The GT500 seems like an awesome platform. Time will tell how they respond to more serious mods.

    This car looks totally different in person. Pictures seem like the color is a little much but in person the color blends in well with the black accents and everyone seems to like it.
    I'm getting thumbs up on a regular just driving around.

    I ordered it last year at local dealer , it was a MSRP deal

    Fuck me! How did you get that deal? You have a friend in high places?

    I was begging The Beast The Beast to lock me in a msrp deal for this exact car. He just couldn't/wouldn't get it done for a fellow enthusiast. Guess I needed to buy 10 cars from him...lol
