I regret not making a journal earlier when I first bought the car but I guess its better late than never! The car was purchased back in October of 07 and has gone through some pretty cool changes since then. There is still allot to do before its complete and I am fully satisfied but that problem will soon be solved with time .

Most of the work and wrenchtime spent on the car has been done by Tony at Turninconcepts, as I currently have absolutely zero tools at my house. I regret not doing more of the work myself but have been extremely pleased with Tony and Clint and really enjoy taking the trips to visit them - so I guess I dont regret it that bad . I really cant emphasis how great the guys at Turninconcepts are - I give them 2 big up!

Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy the car and feel free to leave comments/suggestions and feedback.

Thanks man! Yeah I had them on for the end of summer/fall and took them off when I was traveling up north.

I actually might be selling them and replacing them with some Volk RE30's, but we will see

Really? I'm actually thinking the same thing. I would like the re30s in flat black.

I have been really happy with it.

I was able to use the nav allot when I was travelling up north and I give that a 10/10. ipod and sirius radio are both 10/10 also.

The only things I would have liked a bit better are the F series graphics, but to be fair the graphics are pretty good on this unit aswell.

The one other thing is I cant seem to get the volume high enough on the bluetooth when Im driving around 70-80. The other person can hear me fine and I can hear them when Im just at idle or cruising at say 40-45, but when I get on the highway, the volume is too low.

It's really been an AWSOME unit though
