The "Gotta Have It - Green" is sexy. Although I've always liked lime green. Wish the BRZ came in that color

Yeah, the V6s are really impressive, I think I would be looking at a GT or maybe a GT500, if I get a mustang I gotta have a V8, lol. The Gotta Have It Green is a pretty cool color, but I really wish they'd offer it in the same Dark Green as the Bullitt car. If they did, I might have never ordered the BRZ, but I refuse to do a custom paint job.

And THAT guy, was blatantly lying to you. Don't believe everything people tell you. Look it up and confirm it.


A simple google search, and you will find that according to K&N:

K&N Power Gain Search by Vehicle
Find estimated power gains of vehicles with K&N intake kit installed.

2013 FORD Mustang 3.7L V6 F/I - All Automotive Air Intake 69-3529TP
Estimated HP: 11.79 HP @ 5900 RPM



And how they measure it.


"Estimated Horsepower Gains

K&N provides estimated SAE corrected horsepower gains that are based on actual dynamometer testing for a specific or similar vehicle. The actual horsepower increase a consumer will receive will vary depending on such things as vehicle condition, fuel, weather and other circumstances. It would be impractical to test every possible vehicle configuration or year in which a particular engine may be used; therefore, many of our estimates are based upon similar engine/vehicle/year dynamometer testing that we believe to be representational for the vehicle listed."

Polaris Ace is now on its way to Tacoma (left New Westminster, Canada). ETA eight and a half hours, 5/7/12 ~2:00am pst

[NYC BRZ]

My dealer told me there is a boat bound for the east coast that is scheduled to arrive around 5/25. Which boat could that be?

[Enemies]

The Seijin arrived in Vancouver, Washington earlier today. Wonder if it's heading to Tacoma or Vancouver, BC next.

If ur in the area you can see em if u exit the 710 at peir A,B,C,. Its the first exit past Anahiem. Take the exit around then hang a left at the light. The parking lot is on the left.

I think mine is in that group of cars, can't wait!

Now the question is, can I purchase as soon as it hits the dealer, or do I have to wait until June 1st while the car sits in the showroom so everyone and their uncle can sit in and get their dirty sweaty palms all over it.
