    Great read! Maybe these will go up in value now
    Agreed. He would have been better off with a 98 or something. Besides...true 3/s owners know the 96 tt is the holy grail, not the 99 vr4.

    p.s.
    3/s interior is WAY better than the "I'm surrounded by plastic everywhere" GM and Ford interiors.

    My friend posted this on my facebook yesterday. I personally would never own a 99 vr4. Seems like all of them have the electric sunroofs which really eats away head room. Not to mention I think the older digital climate control looks cooler than the 99 display. Best 3s IMO is a 94-95 (no ODBII crap) with giant glass sunroof and 99 conversion

    LOL!

    seriously. the 2g rt had the best rear. and the 97/98 had the best "other 3/4ths". and when you toss in 99 lights, GAME OVER.

    Not a fan of the 99 front, though would not mind it if a true 99. Not a fan of the headroom loss with the sunroof either. Split on the 97/98 bumper and the 94-96. I like them both.

    Dead on with the 2nd gen RT tails, win.

    I'm the same way although Bryan put his 97 on my car to mock up intercoolers and I really liked how it looked.
