Finally went out to record what my car sounds like and did some spirited driving on the new tires! The Azenis are exceptional; switching out factory tires was probably the best mod I could ever have done.

I bought mine and drove it home!
Took the long route...4 hours...only got out because I was hungry.
Love. This. Car. |

Nothing special beyond just driving it to work and back, like lots of other days. And like all those other days, I loved every minute of it. This is a great car. Perfect driving position, great shifter, great visibility, excellent steering, communicative chassis... it's just a joy to drive this car. It has its faults, sure, but being a great drive isn't one of them. One year in and I still smile every time I drive it. Every time. Even my wife says I'm noticeably happier when I come home from work driving this car. And on second thought, I guess that does make even the mundane commute to work and back pretty special.

Finally got around to install the RS1.0 exhaust and fill my TRD rear valence properly.
Hopefully, it's quiet enough and OE enough to keep the tickets away. Curiosity got the best of me and I tried the TRD door stabilizers: driver door doesn't squeak as much as it did before. |

Post purchase morning detail walkthrough...looking for things I missed, making a mod list, etc. Was able to research the low coolant issue here, which was very helpful.

Thanks! I thought so too. A lot of people don't like the black bits on white look though.

Yeah you need more than one piece to pull it off. You got the emblems, garish, wing, would consider a front lip to finish it off. And maybe the wheels in a gloss black

Sounds really good. What tune did you get with the headers?
