Has anyone here ever been involved in a collision where the other party was at fault and you had a chance to file a claim for lost value? If so, what did you have to do and how did it work out for you?
I'll be attempting this in the near future, I just don't know how it works at all.
I'm waiting for my Corsa Xtreme system to get here and it'll have 4.5" black tips. Starting to worry that those tips are going to look ridiculously huge.
Edit: if you have a picture to post, please include the brand name and the tip sizing!

Well this sucks.
Was following this van on the way into my company's parking garage this morning. Guy gets to the base of the ramp leading up to the second floor, realizes his van won't duck under the...
After mixing and matching for the past thousand miles, I've developed a natural habit of first putting the car in track mode, steering in normal, and disabling all traction/stability nets.
Track mode provides my favorite throttle mapping setup, but its default "sport" steering weighting feels...
The top of my rear glass on the driver's side sits about 3/4" lower than my passenger side. I noticed this while filling up gas and glancing at the car.
Seriously, this is the shittiest QC I've ever seen on a car. I wonder what else is off if I pay attention.
I pulled into my driveway around 12am... then I backed out and went for an hour long round trip joy ride.
Somebody... anybody... please help me cure this addiction.
Picked her up yesterday around 5pm. I'm still in shock that it's finally here.
I'm keeping this short as I plan on doing a full write-up after a week or two with the car. Just a few things, both good and not-so-good:
1) it's gorgeous and gets plenty of attention
2) I'm in love with guard
3)...
After an agonizingly long wait (that many of you can relate to), my car finally arrived at my dealership this morning. I decided to take a peak at her after I got out of work. My dealership had her sitting in the garage all by herself after a nice detailing job... sitting there in all her blue-y...
I checked this thing two days ago with an ETA of 2/7. Today, the bar jumped from "in production", past "awaiting shipment", and is now "in transit." Oh my lawd.
This is hardly a complaint, it's just interesting to point out that the GT350 has joined the latest trend of integrating the exhaust tips into the rear valence as opposed to directly mounting them to the exiting pipes. The execution is well done here given that they align almost perfectly and...
Found this over on /r/mustangs. It's a comprehensive listing of the potential color combinations. Certain gray scales seem to be bluer than intended. Maybe someone can try some of these out for us? :)

From the LA trip where most reviews have taken place, this one is a bit late in coming. It's only available on the subscription-based app, but here's the bit of the review discussing driving dynamics that matters most.
Interesting bit about the EB netting 9.6mpg versus the GT's 10.9mpg while...
Could one of you lovely new owners please make a video of the MyColor spectrum at night? I just watched a video of a base model with the white gauges and they look fantastic as is. Would love to see the other colors, especially in the red/orange spectrum. :)

The review is nothing special by the way.

THE WAIT IS ALMOST OVER. Well, at least so we can get some new reading material up in here. Longest four days ever... I've been counting down for the past week now. Like waiting for your 21st birthday.
UPDATE: Admin response below.
Let's chime in with our favorite automotive staples, be it a magazine, website, video network, or podcast. I'm always on the lookout for quality literature and media to stay up to date on the latest and greatest.
For up-to-date news, I stick with Autoblog, Jalopnik, and [reddit] /r/cars...
I see users on this forum talking about headers and I figured that there would be a general consensus as to what the better option is at this point. Headers are innately better than a manifold from nearly every category save durability and cost; why choose short over long tube and vice versa...
Something outside of a direct message for multiple people to chime in. Another vBulletin forum I frequent has a section to provide helpful input for the admin and mod's reference.
I was just thinking that this board would benefit from regional sub-forums (e.g. West Coast, Mid-West, Central...
