Congrats, that's awesome
Meteorite Metallic was my first choice but I settled on Blazing Blue. I'm actually still waiting for mine to arrive so I can't tell you how jealous I am! Be sure to post pics when you get a chance... |

Ok i've had my car for about 20 hours now and put roughly 150 miles on it so far. I must say,this car is way more then i expected. I love it so much, the handling is awesome, its so tight in the steering, the clutch is perfect(for me), shifting gears is so easy, the interior is really nice, lots of room, nice storage, good power, nice and peppy, great gas milage, and so fun to drive. The one and only complaint i have about it, is the stereo and speakers suck. Cant wait to put an aftermarket head unit in, and all new speakers. I definatly give this car a 10/10.
Now lets do some mods. |

You guys do realize that the new car smell is in fact toxic!!!!! Apparently it is composed of several dozen known carcinogens, released from various materials in the interior. Hey I saw this CNN, they NEVER lie ...... right????

I believe that there are even canned new car smell for sale. Just spray it into your car and it will attract a higher price in the used car market. Believe it, or not.
