I've been inside her, if you know what I mean. I can assure you, I know her gender.

Was at Laguna Seca for the Weathertech series race...heard on the PA it was autograph session time and on a whim I yanked out my dash trim and got it signed, lol.

Got Ricky and Jordan Taylor, Jan Magnussen, Scott Sharp, Ryan Briscoe, Christina Nielsen, Patrick Long, and Scott Pruett.

I'm taking mine in for an issue. Seems my Check engine light keeps coming on whenever I get fuel. The cap won't twist any further so its probably a bad sensor. Still under warranty so it is what it is. My cruise control doesn't work when the check engine light is on. It will turn on but you can't turn it off or set the speed. Seen this in my Dodge Ram, so it's probably some computer safety thing.

Haven't noticed any lack of performance, if anything the car feels more planted and sticks to the road through the corners.

Cuddled with some M3's.

Removed and painted the silver trim on my 2017 steering wheel. The color and sheen matches the rest of my black trim. Next is ordering a Raceseng shift knob to complete the interior.

Slick Automotive in Ottawa did his magic yesterday.

I installed a HKS Legamax catback! Which was way easier that I thought!

I also determined that 17x9 +35 RPF1s will not clear the Performace Pack Brembos!

Not too hard only took ten minutes. Disconnect the battery, pop a few clips, three pins that pop out the airbag and 3 screws per side. After that it slides away from the trim holding the steering wheel buttons. I just reviewed an old tutorial on the forum and replicated the steps. Only difference was the screws connecting the black trim on the steering wheel.
