Oh and the car has 20,000 original miles too.

The only time I ever drive it is up to the corner to put gas in it, other than that I avoid driving it if possible.

Only mods: Flowmaster catback, MGW shifter, O/R X pipe, sportline springs and 18 inch chrome FR500 wheels. I have all the original parts boxed up to go with the car if we were to sell it. It's not officially for sale, but if someone came along with cash she might take it. /shrug.

How do you like the lens overall? Do you use a filter? I want the nikkor 12to24 but its like 1400 bucks. Not sure Id use it enough lol rather get a new body like the d610 or cannon mkv

If it's nice this weekend I'll pull it out of the garage and take some pics. Not sure how many people here have seen it other than Donnie and Matt.

I like it. It's not as sharp as some other lenses, but at under $500, the price is right. For these I was using a CP filter, but I usually use a Gradient ND filter.

It's a gradient so it's dark at the top and clear at the bottom. It doesn't have a level like a regular ND filter. I would say it's pretty mild though.

Oh. I was just looking up some variable ND filters out of curiousity. When I sold my old lens and camera I sold my ND filters with it. Need to get some more.

It is definitely a nice car. I still see your wife every once in a while on her way to work driving it. Its definitely not a ragged out car

I need to get some good dark ND filters. You can do some cool things with them.

I need to perfect my use of the CP filter. I'm trying to cut down on reflections.

Yep, I usually leave mine neutral which is about where the words are at 12 oclock on the lens. If its overly hazy Ill adjust or shooting direct into the sun. I got some rainbow shots in Hawaii you couldnt see with the naked eye, was pretty bad ass to see them appear by rotating the filter.
