I'd like to know more about the car...I'm a little worried about keeping it now that I've read some of the car's history on this forum. I do really like the car, it looks great, I just need it to be reliable. Thanks for any help!

Yep that was mine, I can tell by the smoked rear reflectors. So after the car stalled out and didn't start back up, I had it towed to Midnite Tuning in Largo and they replaced the EPK (fuel pump) module. The car ran fine after that and they said because of my BM3 stage 1 tune, it was taxing the fuel system so the EPK burned out prematurely. Now that it's back to stock, you shouldn't have the same issues but nothing is certain.
It was a great car and I miss it dearly but being stranded 100 miles from home on Xmas night left a sour taste in my mouth.
