I'm loving it. The only thing limiting me from driving it 24/7 is the current price of gas. Still in the break-in period like you, but have taken a few quick trips up to 7,500 rpm in 2nd and 3rd and it's incredible. This car is so much quicker than my '07 Cayman. It's a monster and I only have the C2. Can't imagine what a C2S or TT would feel like. PCM takes a lot of learning to figure it all out. It's an intuitive system, but there are just so many layers to go through and play with. Like you I wish the car was a little louder. The stock exhaust is silent unless I'm on the throttle.

The AWE is nasty! Just be prepared for loud and obnoxious with like a zillion backfires on every drive. But, there is virtually zero drone and none of the annoying sounds the PSE has. So louder, nastier, and more refined. Did I say louder? Oh yeah, louder, much louder.

I brought a cooler, and they have like 15 microwaves in the back. Grown-ups don't eat pizza for lunch.

I can't wait to get her passed 5k RPM, and have only taken it to 4,500 since I have <200 miles thus far (been away on business travel).

Glad to hear you're loving it! How much time have you logged thus far?

My fuel app on my iPhone says I've averaged 61 km per day since May 23rd.

That's awesome HAWC! How is the black holding up? Saw you're using her to her full abilities and carried some pavers?? I'd be nervous about clearance. One of a few reasons I wouldn't consider lowering mine any more than it is with the PASM-S.

Backfiring, yikes! The wife thinks the PSE is too loud, I can only imagine what she'd say about this, ha! I've come to realize the AWE is a polarizing system, LOL.

GT Silver
SportDesign Package
black PDLS
platinum rims

Ha! I think I have the 7MT twin of your car!! Only differences, other than that seem to be you have the Sport Chrono package and rear wiper, and I have sport design mirrors and had the rear fascia painted.

What can I say besides...you have GREAT taste, ha!
