I figured I'd start a thread on what koup owners ages are. And were you from.
So what's your age and what car do you have and what have you done to it and plan on doing to it? And if you can put in a picture of your ride so we can get joules. Lol.


I'm in Atlanta and I am 40 and I got a 2012 SX Koup Corsa Blue, you can see my mods in my signature.
I am planing on lowering it 1" with the drop coils, tinting the tail lights and getting a shark fin.

41...Live in Pa Drive 2012 Koup SX in Racing Red with no mods.I think Im going to keep it "basically" stock,only thoughts I have are window tint,maybe a set of custom rims so I would have a winter set and a summer set and maybe replace stock muffler with something like a flowmaster to give it just a little bit more volume in the exhaust department.

Surprised this thread generated so much responses. Should have made a poll though with age groups so we get a general view. Ie. 16-18, 19-25, etc. But anyway.

23, Northeast GA. Current upgrades in sig. Wanted list: UR suspension add ons, Kinetic's strut bar, Kinetic's exhausts, 17x8 wheels, projectors, black roof, functional sharkfin. Anything else is too far in advance to plan :)

I live in Montreal, Quebec and I'm 22 years old.

I got the 2011 SX Koup Racing Red, you can check my signature and as a matter of fact I just received my shark antenna today and I'm installing in it tomorrow thursday.

Next thing to get and install:
- Winter Wheels and tires as well as the car starter.
- GPS navigation unit.

Something will come up after this :)

22 years old. I have a 2010 Forte EX sedan. All stock right now. I ordered a flip key today and have an appointment for my tint this Saturday. After that will be new badges, shark fin antenna, projector kit from TRS, 17" wheels and we'll see from there. Gotta do some saving lol.
