Post

Purchased back in late December for my wife after 6 years of driving a full size SUV. She is very happy with it. Has 6 Speed, 3.5, bose, navi, etc. Looked for a couple months before I found what she wanted. Were not a ton of them for sale. Ended up finding this one 6 miles from my house.

I have put the wheels, Stillen CAI, Stillen Sway Bar, and Formula One Ceramic tint on it. I know several of you have asked me to post a pic or two, especially some of you DFW guys. Dont think I will do anything else to it.

Only issue was a semi-rough idle. Mobil 1 did help smooth that out a bit, and dealership says it was normal.

Car currently has 22K on it.

Read quite a bit here but seldom post.

Ok, sorry for no pic. Spent 15 minutes trying o figure it out... I am a member of other car forums and usually you click on the Image button and insert the file. It just keeps adding "img" to the bottom of my post.

Welcome to the club dude! To insert a picture, click the picture icon beside the B,I,U, and hyperlink buttons above the post box. Then insert the link information in between the [img*] and [/img] . The star is not necessary, I just put that there to keep my message from turning into a broken picture.

22k, wow I barely have 3900k and I purchased mine last Oct. Can't wait to see pics of the ride. I suggest maybe getting eibach's? The ride is close to stock-quality.

Welcome! I might have seen you around since I was working in Coppell from August to March of this year. That and I live in Lewisville and all. I rarely see 3.5's around, just a ton of 2.5's.

Ranga, nice car. Been kicking around the bullydog mod. Your thoughts on it.Wife car is same color, with 5 spokes on it and tint. No wing. Im with you, not many 3.5's that I have seen around here.

Long Beach, son is looking at going to Stony Brook and playing lacrosse. We were out for the SB/Denver game over spring break. Son want to go to school close to the city.

Put a couple shot on my webshots page of our coupe. http://community.webshots.com/user/bplandis

It's worth it, it was actually my first performance mod, I know that's kind of backwards considering most here got intake/exhaust first but wow, it made a difference in my opinion, the car ran richer, louder, just seemed more mean and it was noticeably faster in the mid-high end.
