I will have the second full week off in July, but I can't do anything the weekend of the 12th, but the following weekend there is a car show at the Keeneland track. I've never been to it but I've heard they have a lot of exotics, it's kind of like the minor league to Pebble Beach. You should come up then!

I may be able to swing that depending. I'm in China the 4th through the 13th but leave for LA on the 20th I think. I've been to Pebble Beach, that was awesome!
As long as I can get the struts on I'm game for a road trip once things slow down though.

I'm taking a road-trip up to Canada on the 12th to visit with a couple of friends I made years ago on Maxima.org. We all drive G Sedans now. Matt has a SC on his 2003... it's kind of frightening.

Quick update:
Exhaust is suppose to be here Monday, and I have installs scheduled for Tuesday or Wednesday depending on if it actually gets here Monday.
I have scheduled an appointment to have my window trim re-wrapped by a different company this time who will use the correct product and not one with duct tape texture. If it doesn't work out this time then I will give up on trying to have it done.
I think after the exhaust gets installed next up will be coil overs and Vossens. I'm leaning towards either of these:
CV2 in matte silver:
VFS2 in polished silver:
The only thing I don't like about these rims is they they don't come in 19", but that's not a huge deal, well... price too...
What do you all think?

I really like the SSRs, Japanese company and fairly light weight, and many offsets available (and 19" too 
)
About $1600-1700 a set from TreadDepot.com: SSR Wheels

Those new 15-spoke VFS2 rims are beautiful.

Right now, only 20" and 22". It seems a typical thing for VOSSEN, to come out with the larger diameter rims first. The CVT was only available in 20" and 22" for over a half year before the 19" came out last February.

I didn't like the Vossen VFS2 at first but the more I see them the more I like them.
