I love the washi and don't care for carbon fiber, at least not on this car for this part. IMO it looks kind of out of place and the CF interior parts I've seen so far look cheap and tacky.

I think I already have Scratch Shield paint on my '08!

3-days ago a flock of pigeons decided to use my car as a freaking toilet! leaving s**t stains the size of Rhode Island on my Hood, roof, driver door and pillar. Top that of it sat there in 100+ heat while I was in the office. Needless to say when I saw my G I was near tears.

Later that night I desperately did what I could removing the stains by washing and applying standard car wax. It didn't go away!!

The next day I left my home late in the afternoon and to my shock, all the stains were gone except a very slight stain on the driver's door (Which was the largest and darkest crap stain on the car). The car had been sitting in direct sunlight all day, and somehow managed to heal itself! I'm pretty sure with a proper light polish, all stains will disappear!

Even though this was not mentioned in my car's standard option list, the fact that both the EX and G were released in the Middle East at the same time makes me think that my car has Scratch Sheild Paint already. I will need to confirm this with my dealer next service!

All hail the G!

Thoughts??
The biggest differance is if you want to make big power with a twin turbo kit. AWD makes it way easier to get the power to the floor and helps keep it down in turns. AWD is the way to go if you like 90 degree turns and complete control. But if you like the old school feeling of having to drive the car and keep it under control, than RWD all the way!!!!

AWD=
+Great For Snow and Rainy Regions
+Better traction in all environments
+Will prevent a spin out at high speeds
-Adds more weight to car
-Less fuel economy
-More wear to tires and more potential things to break
-~$2,500 premium
-Less drift potential
-Can corner slightly worse than a RWD (in some situations)
