I love these cars. Bought my son one a month ago and had to get one too. 97 RS. Put on a cold air intake, got some quickness and 46mmpg hwy. Just threw on headers and a free flow exhaust-a little better! I'm in Ca. so I kept it smog legal. Looking forward to driving this one everyday. So, what do you all like about yours? Interested in every and anyting you might share. Thanks!

Welcome! I'm in LB too. I've been in the game for almost 10 years, and I'm still modding, ha ha. You'll find a wealth of info on this site.

Thank you all for the welcomes! I'll get some pics up asap, probably next week. I'm not sure if this is the right spot for this question yet but here goes. I recently added headers and a cat exhaust. Since the it takes my ride like 4 times as long to warm up. Is it that the headers actually dissapate that much heat? Also, since then, I keep tripping the o2 check engine light when it's cold and still running rich. Aggrevating but no BFD. It happens when I back off the throttle like stopping at a light. If I hit a few greens and warm it up it doesn't happen. I think, lol.
