Def look at the 19's, as there are some pretty distinct upgrades for the 19 models. I know they're more expensive, but not much, and it may be worth it. Are you the type that's gonna wish you had the things the 19 has a few months after you buy the 18? If not, get that 18 now, before someone...
Exactly. This is the part that got me. Came back to post this, see you already did.
Do they not know how to drive this car? If they did, I’m sure the Shelby would win by more than just a nose. Pick a line, blip her down into first, listen to that oh so sweet pop and crackle as she engine...
With help from you and dp, I finally got em on! Not sure if it’s just me, but they look a little wonky unless you’re looking at them straight on, bc of how the splitter is angled.
Now to see how long they last once I take the power washer to the car! :crackup:
Thanks for your help!
Def light sensitive, and its awesome!
Same on not being sure I was gonna like it until I actually saw it....now I like it in many different shades, depending on where its sitting.
Thanks man!
Its a relatively cheap mod (with performance advantages), and I havent scraped the front splitter after 900 miles, but I'm still on the fence about going that low on something I want to drive on the street a lot.
Thanks buddy! I really appreciate that. Did you use the 3M sealant stuff? Not sure if thats overkill, but seems like it.
I'll get mine done this weekend, then update pictures.
Get some pics up man!
Also, how do you install those vinyl stickers? I feel like a moron...I cannot figure out how they work! I need to install the front letters and the steering wheel stripe, but its just sitting because I cant figure it out. :cwl:
Do you know of a good video? I looked...
This. Go check out a 19 GT350 with all the options. Having driven a 17 and a 19, I think the 19 is loads better. It still has the heated cooled seats, has the PSC2's, has better suspension and braking, etc. And, its not 75 thousand dollars. Just something I would encourage you to look into...
I negotiate for a living, and believe there is ALWAYS room for negotiation. If the dealer believes you will actually cancel your order (I assume there is no fee to do so) and go buy one on a lot somewhere you’ve found, it’s likely worth more to them to lose a little on the deal versus having to...
The car looks great man. I have the same color scheme, so I hope mine comes out at least nearly as nice as yours. Sounds like you got the full monte. I plan to get 1 stage paint correction (they said I dont need a lot bc the car is new), a decent amout of PPF, and ceramic coat on the big bits...
Do the pre-19's come with stock tint? Are you guys going darker than that? Just covering over the stock tint, or removing it somehow? Mine came lightly tinted, with the following wording on the windows:
I got caught in the rain the other day, and the car handled just fine. Now, I wouldn’t recommend driving spirited in the rain, but running around town was fine. Honestly, cleaning the car after that was the worst part.
For sure...and gen x’ers got their share of flak from the baby boomers, etc. they said we didn’t care about anything, conformed by refusing to conform, etc. We just went through our issues before cell phones and the internet, so it wasn’t all recorded or “viral.” :)
Your windshield wipers didn’t work?? Terrible. Worse, they won’t let you test drive these things before you buy it, so you can’t look for problems. My airbag light went off 5 mins from the dealership. Couldn’t get an appt with service for two weeks. They told me not to drive it bc the...
I’m 42, so right at the end of the gen x/start of millennial era. I have lots of friends/family in each camp. But honestly, I was just making a joke...hopefully it was taken as such!!
Anyway, back to reliability...I can’t say for sure, since I only have 750 miles on it. But, it does appear...
