These are cell phone pics from today, I spent about 4 hours cleaning it up from the winter. The car is stock but has new brakes/rotors, tires, intake gasget, valve cover gaskets, and a new mass air with 94K on the clock.

You're kidding right? I would never buy a 4-door. I didn't really want an auto but I got a decent deal on the car. I bought it from a dealership with 89,--- on it guess how much? This is my 7th car, I'm 21, and it's my first auto...:th_thumb-down: I hate the tranny in this thing.

I raced my friends truck, its a n/a v6 5-speed auto. I was heat soaked like crazy but i didnt start pulling untill like 75mph. These things take forever to down shift...By the time my car found the right gear he was ahead 1 lenght.

This is why you buy a good pcm and a shift kit. Problem solved lol

Umm no, the w-body platform looks outrageous in a coupe. Coupe's should only be in RWD form and a shorter car. It just looks ridiculous to me. What is the point of having this nice leather interior and roomy back seat if you don't have rear doors for easy access?

then why did you buy the car if you don't like it? :th_laugh-lol2:

As far as the 2 door's go...Don't kid yourself coupes looks way better.
 
coupes rule. who drive around people anyway? passengers suck. only one...MAYBE two people get to ride in my car ever.
 


I like the car I dont like how long it takes to down shift...I would of expected to pull a lot harder on my friends truck thats all. I mean sure it's stock but it has a blower on it and its weaker than his n/a v6? I wasent expection that, no biggy. I guess I need to buy, plugs, a down pipe, cai, a pcm, a drilled 180* T-stat, and a 3.4" pulley.
 
You really think the car will knock with all those mods with the 3.4"? I mean I know enough not to just slap on the 3.4" but really headers too? I was thinking a catless 3" downpipe would be enough, with the CAI, plugs, t-stat, and a tune...I never run anything less than 93 oct.

hmm I don't know where my post went but yeah your front stock exhaust manifold is pretty restrictive. At least do a plog and downpipe but, headers are still better. Run it with some 104's (coppers) and definitly get something to scan for knock before you start dropping pullies. Just the breathing mods alone would wake the car up a bit.

P.s If your interested in a wizard cai you can buy mine.
