You sound like a 5 year old girl Nitin, when asked to describe her dad's car!

This is very nice.
Think a white 5th Gen is probably the best looking 5th Gen. Either that or a black one.

Good work on the engine bay. Very tidy as well.

Looks well
Would love a lude that colour but black will have to do me for now haha
Good job on the build, glad to see someone doing maintenance first
