I bought this car a week or two ago, it had a few problems but i spent a day to make it good for the road. It is a 5 speed 2.6l astron II High Roof Sigma GN Wagon and it is a pretty cool car, a good buy for $800 in my opinion. I know some stuff about cars but i am a 16 year old and i do not know very much about sigmas but im sure i will eventually haha. Here are a few pictures,

yer it is my first car aswell just read the gregoreys book and you'll be sweet, i was thinking about it but chicks dont mind the yellow just getting 17"s a fresh up on the paint, a set of lowered springs and a decent muffler on the back and it will be all good

I have discovered that mine sounds pretty loud from the outside, only has one muffler.. whether that is stock or not it sounds alright lol.
Also does anyone know any good cheap springs that will fit and improve the car, i know king springs are good but just wondering if there are any others that may be better? Pretty keen to get rid of all the body roll :P

Kings? Good? I want some of what you're smoking :P
Personal experience has led me to believe that King springs are made by trained monkeys with Downs syndrome.
I mean, they'd be fine if you were just after a drop in ride height but if you expect much of a performance improvement or any less body roll then you'll be disappointed.
