    Hello all!
    I'm new here, so I figured I'd introduce my little eco egg here.

    This is my 06 Gen 2
    It has 146k on the odometer, has a salvage title, was in a minor accident years back before I owned it. Explains the paint job, put a new HV battery and media screen, had the triangle of death.

    It's been a solid little econobox and I absolutely love it! 20240227_160914.jpg

    Here in the USA where I live this would be a first generation generation 2 so it's like 04 to 7th month of 05 and has the blacked out brake lights for that iteration of the car unless they've been installed on a '06 to '09 second iteration of the generation 2 I do this a lot but most people don't bother so I would guess this is the short nose generation 2.

    I had to blow the pictures up of the back end yeah that's a '06 to '09 not the earlier version I couldn't see your tail lights clearly and certainly I don't remember this color but and that's neither here nor there.

    Passenger tail was probably replaced after that accident
