WI Buying an FC next week! Woo!

Hey guys! My name is Gabe, I reside in Wisconsin.

I currently have a B5 S4 build for HPDE/Time Attack. RSK04 build, puts down a LOT of power on 20psi! Custom revalved Bilstein coilovers, Big Brembos, the list goes on. Selling it to my cousin on Saturday so I can drive to IL and pick up an 87 FC Vert!

I once built a turbo focus. I'll throw some pictures of that at the bottom. I sold it two years ago. I miss it every day.

I also once had a legacy GT. not many pictures of that. I didn't put it together, but it had 330whp, that was fun. Sold that last summer.

Then came the E30 convertible, sold that to my friend. He S52 swapped it and made it rad.

Then, the S4. Just not into it, idk. Too big of a car for me I think. I'm a small car guy at heart, but I've ALWAYS had stupid big FWD or AWD sedans

This FC convert-i-bro will be my first non-sedan project car, and I'm really excited!

I have Weds Kranze Brazerias, Stance Gr+ coilovers, VIS aero, a Key!s steering wheel, and red Bride replica seats ready to be ordered through a good buddy of mine next week. So, this convertible is going to go from stock to fancy very quickly! As long as the selling of my Audi goes smoothly on Saturday along with the pickup of the new Rx7, that is!

Oh, also, I have a 2007 MV Agusta F4 1000R. I jokingly refer to the bike as bae. But seriously, it's really fast and a total riot to ride.

Here's some pictures of my stuff!

If you're used to the headache that is VAG, you'll do just fine with the FC. Congrats on finally buying a car from the correct country

P.S. The Bride replica seats are terrible...not sure if you've ever sat in one or known anyone who's owned one, but I have and wouldn't waste the money.

Good luck with your build, I think you'll like it.
