I have no idea where that list came from, on my sticker it says Emerald Green Metallic so that is what I go by.

I do like the pic of the concept car with the tan roof though. Not so crazy about the tan dashboard, but also like the tan seats.

Hey Bud 1LE, how about a pic of the window sticker showing the options so we can figure this 1LE thing out?

I have my extra if your interested plus it had XPEL applied to it already
PM me if you like.
Also the 1LE was a dealer applied option and was applied at dealerships.

Dealer applied option? So the dealer installed the 1LE suspension, transmission and wheels? I don’t think so.

No he was asking about the 1LE suspension.

I'm not sure what you are referencing as far as the Wheels and the transmission.

The 1LE sold as a package and included the blacked out matted hood. There is only one member within our group that I know of that actually has the 1LE suspension (VIN) as a part of his Green Flash. When I purchased mine new it had an option of installing the 1LE suspension, so just to be clear it did not include the 1LE wheels or hood.

Yes it was an add on option. My dealer built mine with the 1LE Suspension added at the dealer when it was delivered. Is listed as SCJ on the trunk tag. A $1,975.00 option.

Try re-posting this question in the Convertible forum, maybe somebody there can help.

Hey guys I'm thinking about making some serious mods to the flash IE cam swap. Has anyone done this yet? If so would you guys recommend keeping VVT or doing the ls3 conversion? I want to keep the car as is since in Ohio its considered a collectible, but I'm seriously getting the mod itch.

How many miles do you have on your Flash? A collectable is a collectable but the miles and condition will determine the overall value. I am kind of understanding you did not buy it for the purposes of storing it and reselling it way later down the road.

I have not modded any internals yet but will once our twins are born and the dust settles. I think if you plan to keep it for two years or more you shouldn't worry too much about any modifications. I've already completed some modifications but I drive mine daily and purchased it new. But for my case I will not re sale it.

So just my .02, mod away but with only proven shops. I have about two to three weeks before I reintroduce her

I just got over the 6k mark and owned for two years. Its a weekend car for sure, and I have no real plans of selling it. I did all the visual mods like tinted windows side markers and tail lights, and blacked out bowties. I did an SLP LM1 axel back, and plan on doing a CAI next weekend. I just know I'm gonna want more power.

Can you post pics of your tail lights? Sounds interesting

I had three cars. My Porsche, the flash and a mint condition 93 Firehawk
The Flash is my go to car. I have 62K miles on mine.
That’s great with only $6K miles. I’m going with an Eforce supercharger when
The dust settles after these last rounds of mods. Kind of broke my piggies bank
