Default 235k+ miles and she still looks pretty! (D70 + poopy EJ1 + VSM EJ8)

Went out for a quick shoot with Chris aka fool11, but he mostly wanted to hide...



...so I shot most of the pics Just turned over 235,000 the other day, still rough in (too) many places, but I love her. Stock D16Z6 was rebuilt at some point...I love 40+ mpg on the freeway





heh, my cupholders still work. I've seen some minty EG's and the cupholders are never intact. My beater, on the other hand, which is broken or messed up after 200k+, has a mint cupholder. These things are so flimsy, no wonder they never lasted. The green lighter is from a 87 CRX Si btw



dumped on steelies!



EG's have the sexiest curves IMO.

The EJ1 isnt bad, but that EJ8 needs work on the headlights and is no where near dumped. I had less wheel gap on my old Tein S-Techs.

^ I think my mom's car is lower than that

It's a joke, I'm always bugging him to upgrade his suspension and get some wheels

Cool locale, but I must say that these pics don't do either of your cars justice. I am not a fan of the hyper-solarized-whatever look. Especially because your car has a very organic color, I think it would look WAY better rich and contrasty. In other words, I want to see the pics without the editing The last shot looks perfect IMHO.

Yo Chris, hit up your headlights with a wet sand and then shoot some clear on them. They will look better than new.

One more reprimand. Whats up with the dirty interior!? Shine that **** up!

Thanks. I'm gonna try the EX lip for a while...I just have to find a clueless EX owner who knows nothing about their car and offer to take it off their hands for a few bucks. It's worked before!

Anyway, a couple more pics...one processed, and one way processed. Just going for a slightly different feel here.
