I'm not sure where you are in FL, but there is an orange 2Gen near Riverview on US 301, just S of the Hwy 60 intersection.

I'm not quite sure what to make of the color, but it certainly stands out in an unnatural sort of way (kinda like the green car in the F&F flick).

Yeah, it's on the W side of the road. I forgot exactly where, but I think it was at one of the car lots. The orange stands out like a giant Sunkist soda.

I talked to Scott about the exhaust, and he said that they can't put a non-cat exhaust on your car if it rolls into the shop with cats. Do you have cats now? If so, you can just drive it to Scott's garage, we can remove the old exhaust, install the header, and trailer it over to the muffler shop. This may save you some $, also, since you wouldn't have to pay the muffler shop for the labor of removing the old exhaust or installing the header. If you don't have cats now, then I think that you could go in by yourself with no problem, but Scott and I could go with you if you like.
