Hi folks,

I found a local car that fit what I was looking for. Manual trans, late model, and nicely equipped.

 

And a nice color as well! Congrats and enjoy in good health!

 

Beautiful color! Did you really only give yourself 24 hours to buy?

Also, Tell me about that cupholder on the floor. I wonder if it would work in the back seat footwell the same way.

 

The cup holder is made by Ultimate and it just slips under the center console so the rear would have to be the same: https://www.ultimatecupholders.com/

I wrapped a lot of it (flat areas) and other pieces were painted:
