Thanks!...it does have the Sport Chrono and I wanted to get something other than silver this time. Not sure about the lobster fork wheels, but I got time to customize her. Cheers.

auto dimming mirrors

Can't see if it has auto climate control, but probably does. And if it has memory seats and auto dimming mirrors, chances are it has rain sensing wipers too.

That's a lot of options.

Wow! You know more about my car than me! Lol. I actually haven’t had too much chance to drive the car since I got it. Will need to figure everything out.

That's just my Wheeler Dealer eyes being able to spot options from pics. You never trust the ad.

Funny thing about options, you get a car that has something you've never had and don't care about and suddenly that option becomes a 'must have' on your next car. They spoil you.

Haha, I totally understand. I recall seeing the memory seat buttons and auto climate control on the car. Honestly, I was just happy to be able to find this car in such good condition that I didn’t care much about all the options on it, but I am sure I’ll get used to the convenience features fast.

Cause they remind me of lobster forks! I don’t think they’d fit your 03 base, as the rears are too wide I think. Perhaps some experts here know better than me though.
