The ES350 is the boringest of boring cars! I had one as a loaner for about two hours and thought it was the perfect car for an 80-year old. Actually I find that having boring cars in front of me causes rage. :frusty: The mustang is a nice pick-me-up in the morning, and the reward for getting...

And I forgot to post this when I took it, 'cause apparently I'm a dumbass:

I know that garage! :D [/img]

Mine certainly fills faster (and gets smellier) in the cold weather. It was about half full after about 6(?) months and maybe 3500 miles.

It was quite hot here in Washington State in the US last June (funny if you know the reputation of the "Evergreen State" as a wet, rainy place). My EB drove perfectly fine in 100 - 112 degree (F) heat. It wasn't as quick as in cooler weather, but it was still enjoyable to drive. No problems...

The way people drive around here...? Need photon torpedoes.

I know this is a wheels thread but, I just had to say... So. Much. Gloss! :first:

I've been noticing that smell too lately. I just checked, and sure enough, there was about a half inch of smelly guck in my Mishimoto can.

That EB will make a great highway commute car but... If you're in stop and go traffic, it'll make you crazy that you can't open the car up and have fun you should get to have with it. Doubly so if it's a manual. The Hyundai probably won't create that problem. But if you can drive freely...

Yeah, it washed right off! :) Unlike the time the sprinklers at work got hard water stains all over it... :rant:

You want dirty..?? I got dirty! It rained mud while I was at work one day.

Even the Eco will want to go sideways if you romp on it in a turn, say in 2nd gear and Sport+ mode... :D

I got clobbered at work one day recently with the overspray from sprinklers getting blown out with compressed air for the winter. After a wash, I used straight white vinegar poured into a spray bottle. Sprayed it on the car, waited about 15 seconds, wiped it down with a clean microfiber cloth...

:lol::thumbsup:

After about 8 months and 7500 miles, my oil life was in the low ~30-40% range according to the monitor. I went ahead and had it changed when I had the car in for the EB underbody heat recall. The OLM is supposedly there to keep you from having to do unnecessary oil changes. I thought it seemed...

Those 'premium' ford A/W mats are pretty cruddy. My heels had worn the honeycomb ribbing down to nothing in 3 months of daily driving.

Yep, the windows slime up inside, especially when it's hot. Get yourself some of the Stoner Invisible Glass stuff and their silly-looking cleaning wand with the triangular head. Use it every couple of weeks. It looks stupid but works great.

Doesn't have enough gold. Needs OTS gold stripes and hashes. Then maybe it'll look complete.

I traded in an '01 IS300 for a '15 EB Premium. There is so much more power and torque available at the rear wheels on the Mustang, it's a night and day difference. I don't think the IS could ever have spun its rear wheels on dry pavement, where the 'stang certainly can!
