Cleaned the cone scuffs off after taking it auto crossing yesterday. I was my first time at auto-x, but not my last. More fun than should be allowed. I'm surprised it isn't taxed.
Just did a road trip to Vegas. My wife usually complains on long drives, but she was sat reading the whole way there and back - the cooled seats really kept her happy and comfortable.
The car itself just wafted along at 75-80 the whole way. Quiet and controlled. The PP suspension didn't feel...

I agree that the reverse light wiring is easily altered. Euro cars have a separate button/switch for the rear fog light - it's switchable independently of the from front fog lights. I wouldn't want so carbuncle aftermarket switch on my dash to turn it on. It's one safety feature I miss.
My guess is that's a reverse light/fog light combo. Probably split into 3 sections internally - reverse lights on either side and a bright fog light in the center. So different wiring than US cars.
