Wow - 4th post since 2014!

Congrats on the Swift. 2001 was the last year of that generation. (You do NOT want a "Swift+" clone of the Chevy Aveo).

I assume since you mentioned pulse & glide that you got a manual? We've had a few members with these cars through the years that were able to get pretty respectable results out of them.

What are your modding plans?

PS: nice since you're in the south that you don't have to worry about tin-worm eating the front control arm mounts away. .. assuming it spent its life down there.
