Looking good Daz will have to show this thread to my mate Daniel and get him motivated to get his A9X done after it has been sitting in a million bits in the shed for the last 18 yrs.
Have you got some paint on it yet ?

hi,the rims appear to have 2 rim steps to centre,the gts only has 1,the gts rims are a dime a dozen so to speak,but the A9X are worth a sh1t load. and yes the car is definatly worth the effort .
