Gotcha. I'm just trying to save you from selling a non-running car for short money when you could probably fix it and maximize your investment. It sounds like you more than got your money's worth already with the mileage on the car, though

You're right.. I pick up my WR Blue Limited later today and if I had the option I would've prefer it without the spoiler and be able to choose my own with all the aftermarket stuff coming out. I even kinda like some of the TRD parts that have shown up..

That's one of the main reasons I got the Premium. I can do most all of that stuff myself later (other than the climate control). Congrats on the pickup this afternoon!!!

Thanks!!! I'm so excited its crazy lol... I've been following this car for the longest. I would've done the premium also but I love the push button start, and heated seats. Coming from the Infiniti I would've missed those little features.

Oh i definitely recognize the help you were giving and really appreciate it. And actually had a conversation with my farther about it last night. A few years ago we talked of buying some crap car and fixing it up and having some fun at the track with it. He wanted some old muscle car. And he is interested in just doing it with my tC since its already paid off and everything else on it works fine besides the motor.Im not in any rush to sell it. So i will be hanging onto it for a while just to see how it actually goes.

There ya go! That's the way to do it. You could have a lot of fun with a tC as a drag, auto-x or any other type of competition car.

I'm sorry you bought it from fitz mall. Don't ever get anything repaired from them. Deuch nozzles had me and my brother drive up there to tell him he didn't have enough credit for his car loan and needed a cosign. Should have told us that before we drove 3 hours one way.

I have taken my dad to check out a couple of autox events, and he seems to really like them. so we would build it geared towards autox. I have never been a big fan of drag racing

I actually didnt have any issue with buying it from them. I drove up there, the car was there, there was no hassle about the cost, my credit was fine. i was in and out of there within 2 hours

If you don't like the spoiler, you can find someone to swap trunks with. That's what I did (check my profile albums).

OP, congrats on your new car!

There's no way to remove the actual spoiler that comes on the trunk? Would it leave holes?
