To me Mischievous Purple is a bit of a wimpy name whereas Homicidal Purple really sells it!
Maybe Crowd Avoiding Purple is a more friendly name then
Me and some buddies were so proud of ourselves one night when we collectively came up with Statutory Grape. Drinks might have been involved...
If you ordered the Performance Package the Nickel Luster wheels are a no brainer. The stock black wheels are great but get totally lost on a dark colored car.That picture is awesome.... and it has me thinking I may need to add those wheels to my order, they complement the color really well
Thanks for sharing that link! I agree, the black wheels won't be able to pop the way I'd want on that color. The only reason for my hesitancy is knowing I'll want a different set of wheels ultimately anyway. Since those have an upcharge I think I'd be wasting my money. I've been thinking about a PP2 or M1HP style wheel. Or even something like the EB PP wheels from the 18+ (which is what I have on my current one...I wonder if i could get them powder coated
).
I hear you but…at $850 they are a good deal for forged wheels. You will be able to sell them for at least that when the time comes to replace them.Thanks for sharing that link!

Dang... those do look good lol they just weren't the style I had in my head.... thanks a lot, I've got some thinking to doI hear you but…at $850 they are a good deal for forged wheels. You will be able to sell them for at least that when the time comes to replace them.
And just to tempt you.
Awesome to see when guys have their priorities correct and care about their future. You are exactly the type of person that should upgrade and get what you want - not because you need it, but because you would definitely appreciate all the things a GT would give you over your EB. You are already planning for your future now, so splurging once to get a GT will not derail you from your future goals in the long term. Hell, if you get exactly what you are looking for, you might keep the car for a long time. Good luck with your search and post pics when you get your new car. Don't let any of those shady dealers manhandle you with BS upcharges!
I appreciate it! That is my plan. I'd like to make this a project car once it's time to move on to a new daily driver. That was the plan for the EB, but something tells me the GT will be a little more fun as a project
I've already picked out several mods to do over time. (I may be more excited about it than I expected to be lol)
For sure! That looks awesome! And I think these look great without a spoiler. That said, my EB has the spoiler delete, so I've decided it's time to change things up and go with the spoiler for this one. (I'm kind of leaning toward the RTR gurney flap for the PP spoiler.)these wheels and a spoiler delete really change the look of the PP1 cars.
There is a PP1 with spoiler delete at Ourisman, in red. I gotta say it's a good look. Unfortunately no real pictures on website. Though if you want show-room pics, ping @EmCel and she might oblige.
...And driving the EB most days of the week probably wouldn't save enough money on gas to make up for the insurance and property tax for having an extra car.
