You must be one of the few who feel that way...

If you don't use common sense when parking, those close calls will eventually turn into scratching you bumper or getting curb rash regardless on whether you're lowered or not.

To each their own

But, I bought the car just couple of months before new 2010 year model arrival. Plus, I waited quite a long time before finally pulling a trigger. If you look from another perspective, you enjoined your ride for 6 extra months, it is not so bad

Actually, I did not have much choice with colors because I was buying 6mt and I did not want to order and wait. In my case it was silver or black. My wife preferred black and I agreed. I do not regret now, it does look really good. Yes, I will have to wash it more often, it is fine

thanks again for warm welcome!

Nice car! I have same car, but in MW. It would look better if the front end sat a bit lower, but it's not worth cost or the day to day hassle. I've seen much worse stock ride heights.

Unlike many others, I like the stock sport wheels. The car just needs a bit more exhaust tone.

I goggled staff you mentioned, looks promising. Never tried it before, just did regular car wash on my previous car. I'll try this on my new ride. Thanks for the tips!

the coupes are really discounted this october. yesterday i scored an x coupe with premium, nav, trunk mat and cargo net for 36,661, which stickers at 44,825. that's exactly $4500 below invoice, before TTL. being patient really paid off for me.

now i need to find cleaning supplies for my blue slate. ive got meguiar's detailer, just need clay, polish, porter cable and sealant/wax.
