Hey what's up guys... Just got a set of rims from VIP Modulars in California. Sitting on H & R springs. Wish it was just a bit lower. What do you guys think of the ride? By the way, pictures may be a bit blurry, damn Iphone!

nice looking six, love the rims. Just one question, any reason you got the black top instead of hard top? is it because its less expensive, i see alot of sixes with the black top, i prefer the hardtop.

Never owned a convertible, figure I'd give it a shot and see how I like it. So far so good. It's a bit of a pain when it rains half of the time in TN, but summer is just around the corner. I think the convertible cost more than hardtop, from what I noticed.
