Also helps that it's cheaper now that it used to be. I was quoted 650 or 750 (canadian dollars) for a full paint correction and ceramic, which is pretty good value IMO, and you come once a year after that and pay 150 to reapply the top coat. That's what I'm looking to do cause I love the guy's work but wheels and wings and other upgrades always win out the decision game

MT users: Do you heel and toe while downshifting all the time? If you do that's great. If you don't, or can't.. well, AT manual mode -kind of- does that, and sounds great at least it is great to me.. I only have some complaints about the final drive ratio. If I could, I would definitely probably maybe perhaps mod that. But that would increase the fuel consumption, and I drive it everyday (oh man, I'm so lucky) so I wouldn't (I couldn't read the whole thread, hope this is not very irrelevant) |

Having a long term plan would be very useful for saving money. There is no point of buying a header if it will be turbo one year later.

I don’t heel toe downshift every time, that would get exhausting to me. Lol With the MT in the twins you are shifting a LOT. It’s great fun, but it’s work. I’m so glad Toyota/Subaru gave the option of a fun AT for the twins. There is a very big benefit of not having to shift in heavy traffic, but you can still have fun when you want to.
