thx for the compliments everyone! sorry i tried uploading the third and fourth pics as attachments but it makes the picture smaller...to save bandwidth i assume. my friend said he'd post em up on his server but we all got back from the library pretty late. if you want hi-res pics just pm me your email or something and i'll send you the pics you want. pics of macy? well if i posted up more pics of macy it might overshadow my car!!! hence the thread would be about macy and would no longer be an introduction . in response to how i bought this car...i sold my first car (a modified 350z bought with my own money which i dearly loved even if it was an auto) and traded in my 6 month old lotus exige to partially pay for this car (manual of course!!!). basically i got those cars for good grades ^^ and cuz i have awesome parents who also like awesome cars. a rig was used for the highway shot and the shot of the evo and my car (that's a seksi blue color btw)...here's some more pics:

oh...and ucsd students/alums ftmfw!

The pics were taken by Scott Chu (see his portfolio at www.scottchu.com) and modeled by our friend, Macy.
WOW!

Awesome pics, awesome ride. Good luck with finals and the whole premed/MCAT process.

No, that's Cobalt Blue. Tweaked a little and ended up looking like Lapis Blue I guess.
