add a sport exhaust if you don't have one already, that'll add some new life to your car that you'll enjoy

Sleepless nights--yep..

You got that right. Catching naps here and there, but reading your post is a nice escape from dirty diapers.

Thanks for taking the time to photoshop those options. Have to wait and see what the wife say's. Seems like all priorities have shifted to the baby which is right. Thanks again!!

Driving during the weekdays!

Since we had our first baby boy life has pretty much come to a screaching Hault! One plus side is anytime I have to make a Diaper run, Wipes run, or anything baby related I'm taking the Porsche out and leaving the Camry or Famry mobile. For that quick drive to the store at least I can enjoy getting there. Good grief I hope life does get better than a drive to the store in my Porsche. Just thought I'd share that.

The stock wheels are great, but blacked out makes a real statement, if you really want a change.

have them powder coated-it will look more aggresive....gl
