Car History:

I bought my car June of 09 at an Infiniti dealership after looking around for something with comparative power and more space then the e36 BMW M3 i was trying to find....I ended up on autotrader finding my car for a good price and which looked like comparable numbers. So I talked it through with my parents and we went to go see it. The next day we went back and ended up making the purchase. Until this day I still look back at that day with a smile and a frown. I am happy about having "Stealth" as my car within my life but the underlying problems i faced in the first year I could of lived without. I have one last thing I feel to repair and then the car will be as good as it should of been coming off the lot but it was more of a pain to discover the issues and also have to pay to get them fixed. As of now like I said before I have one thing left to fix then I can get back to putting money into the gas tank and into modding. Well here is some pictures of its history:

First Day I bought it:

(didnt think the rear double wing was weird when I first got it until later on but it has been removed as you will tell by subsequent pics)

Then the modding began:

Let me know what you guys think and thanks for the opportunity to post the life of Stealth so far.... ;D

Looks good welcome to ECM.

Love the wheels.  Glad you got rid of the double rear spoiler.  That's just retarded. :D

Hey Jarrod,

Welcome to the Elite. So we definitely met and I'm horrible with names. The pic from your first meet, it was from the first Mercer County park meet. I see me, my fiance and a few other TCC/Elite members there. Are you the one with the black hat?

What part of Pittsburgh are you at/from? I've got family in squirrel hill.

I actually am not in that the pic of us at the first meet lol....that was me taking the picture @ Arie.....and its fine even though we met quite a few times over the last year.....but this might help:

Me at Heinz Field @ RibFEST Labor Day Weekend

And I am in Oakland so SQ Hill is right around the corner from me....and yes the double wing was retarded so I had that quickly removed.

Car looks good. Welcome and hopefully i'll see you around acouple of meets next year when the weather gets warmer and my accord comes out of hibernation.

A few times is a freaking understatement, lmfao.  Pictures really help jogging memory.

How've you been brother?

It's about time you came to the Elite  >:D

That pic of the Mercer County meet looks familiar. Not all the pics are working for me so I don't know who you are. I was the guy that came with the wife and two kids that could not stop running around because, well, they're kids. Welcome to the elite BTW.

Now I know who you are lmaoOooo.... Welcome aboard dude!

*I totally confused your screen name with another hence the crazy PM I left ya, lmaoOoo... so disregard my last PM!

I was wondering whose ride was in the photo'z with TCC's Peter (Gen 8 black coupe)

...ride looking nice and clean bro.

Nice clean ride ;)

+1 for removing the double spoiler! Welcome aboard!

Welcome to Elitecm Jarrod, its about time u joined....... 8-)
