Welcome to the club. I drove a few with 20" wheels before purchasing mine and agree the 19s provide a better ride, although plenty of folks will be happy with them. Mine came with cheap aftermarket LED tails (from a manufacturer commonly seen on the forum that most people recommend avoiding, and several of the LEDs did stop working) so I switched them out for factory red tail lights -- about a 15 min job. Parts were just over $500 from Suncoast. Enjoy a superb machine! Torque monster.

We've had some pretty bad snow here in NY as you may be aware. So i havent had a chance to give the car a proper wash. I believe this saturday is suppose to be pretty nice. I plan to do it then.

Lucky for me the previous owner did not install the cheap led tail lights, I think they are just the smoked lense ones. So changing those out is on the bottom of my list.

I took the car out for a spin this weekend, my lord on those 20's, i felt every little pebble i rode over.

The techart exhaust tips will be going up for sale in the next week or two, I snagged a pair of OEMs from another member on the board.

Its a SPAM robot. They exist on all forums. Candidly, I have no idea what their purpose in posting is and they usually get banned quickly. You can report them with the report button at the top of his post and have a moderator ban/remove him from your thread.

Those pics make it look a lot nicer than when it was for sale. Good luck with it. I've managed to secure one of my own since you posted this and it's already on the lift in my garage getting some work done. LOL

With the cars.com link now dead, can you share what the selling price ended up being for this 27k mile example?
