Emery has always wanted an RS. He would like to drive this to the 2012 DSM Shootout, run a 9.50, and drive home, still keeping creature comforts such as A/C, radio and, you know, interior parts.
This RS will be his personal daily driver, so there are no customers to please, no wife to please (:)) and no one to tell him not to do something. This is his way all day.
I’m pretty excited to see how it turns out!
We’d like to thank some of the shops and sponsors we already have on board with this project:
Buschur Racing
AWD Motorsports
Tirado Custom Coatings
Fuel Injector Clinic
Here’s what she used to look like:
And the interior:

Nice Evo IX seats:
They are a bit wide, and this will likely not be the final product. Emery has something else in mind.
Got the radio relocation and pocket combo together:
And after seeing the hideous VIII steering wheel in there, I broke into my Evo stash and donated this to the project. Pretty sure I’m not driving an Evo next year anyhow… but, oddly enough, that’s not the sound of me complaining
