If i'm thinking of the same dealer, weren't they asking 38k? I was wondering what the hell they were smoking.

Yeah that color combo is the best IMO.

Yes, same dealer. $38k was with the CPO warranty. I ended up buying it without it. Took me a month of negotiating though. Guess they needed to find out for themselves that nobody would pay $38k.

I actually bought a ZHP knob, but sold it right after I found out the previous owner ground down the notch on top of the rod that keeps the knob from rotating. Not sure why, but instead of trying to buy a new SSK rod from UUC I decided it would just be easier and much cheaper to keep the knob it has now.

Maybe he wanted to make the shifter even shorter?

Thanks and congrats on the purchase! I really like space/silver grey on our cars.

Didn't know where else to put this, so....

Here she is cooling off in the shade after a "jog" Ignore the dumpster in the background

For anyone considering doing camber shims, I highly recommend it. The difference the extra camber made is phenomenal. The understeer the car had in the tight turns before is a thing of the past. Anything I threw at the car today it took like a champ and begged for more.
