The rear fenders on the 2012 don't like me so much anymore, I spent a lot of time with the fender roller making sure those things would fit - we did not want to flare this car.

So far I am impressed. The longer wheelbase makes the car much more stable, and it does not get away as quick when it does break loose. The car exceeded my expectations for the day, it was nearly a full second quicker than I expected it to be... Still not as quick as the 99, but so far we have been unable to get the AEM mated up to the new ECU. Once we get the parts equal on both cars it may have a slight edge due to the lower roof-line and more stable platform. However, I am doubtful I will get it as light as the 99 (which is down to 1800lbs), the lack of aftermarket body panels is going to make it hard to drop those last few lbs.

I sure do like the looks of it better than the old car.
