Sounds like savings to me!!

Yup...been there and done it...plus the occasional dripping of the oil from the K & N. No thanks.....thats why we got away from oil coated air filters 45 years ago....

Here in canada I don't think there is any sorta law against tinting your rearview mirror. The highest allowed tint limit on the rear window is 5% (limo tint), but then you have to tint the 2 front side windows with 50% (next to nothing). I prefer that, were legal, do the 20% all the way around or else risk your car looking like it has a minivan tintjob (I despise minivans)

Yeah but I am not planning on racing anyone... and the car is fast enough. And if these cars sell like the mustangs do, they are going to be everywhere and most of them will be stock (or at least look stock) and you'll just blend in with all of the other ones. I wanna stand out... at the least I would get some black wheels.

Trying to decide what will be the first tune I will play in my new toy? If I get a black Camaro then Back in Black.

1. Take lots of pictures, IF and only IF there is enough daylight left from driving it around all day.
2. Try to find something close to IOM and paint the Brembo rotors, unless they wind up being red.
3. Take more pictures
4. CAI
5. Catback
