hey congrats on the car i agree with just doing appearance mods. Get used to the car and its power before you add more power. Another thing is dont be tempted to do stupid things with the car. Im sorta close in age Im 21 and i get alot of people who want to race its not worth it bro. Heres an expierence i had last week leaving college,

a brand new g37 coupe pulled up next to me i was really tempted to just floor it when the light turned green but the little wisdom i had said dont do it so he goes and i come up to him at another light still tempted light turns green he takes off then i caught up to him again in traffic we both get on the highway and he takes off weaving in and out of lanes im just cruising listening to some tunes a half a mile up the highways two bergen county sheriffs pulled him over that could of been me on the side of the road

go to www.wreckedexotics.com and see what street racing and speed do. You got a beautiful car dont wrap it up the reason i tell you this is because when i was 17 i had a lot of friends street racing and some of them are very lucky that they arent in jail or 6 feet under BE SMART an ENJOY your car and congrats too

Congrats man! Take care of it and keep it clean. And for the sake of everything that is holy DO NOT engage in any racing unless it is at the strip.

Hey! that's great.

Just a couple thing to keep in mind.

- Read the threads on the correct way to break her in.

- Respect the power! This is a very powerful car for someone without alot of road experience. No need to show off, they already think it's fast. Keep 'em guessing.

- With the small area of vision, make sure to double check before changing lanes or turning. Or else you will have a beat up Camaro... real quick.

- Black is a beautiful color, but a pain in the azz to keep looking good. Research the 2 bucket method of washing, don't use that brush at the "do it yourself" carwash and NEVER go through an automatic wash. Wax it NOW!

- Don't litter the car with cheap mods. Go for quality or you will find yourself on one of our fail threads!

Gratz kiddo!

Sorry but I AGREE with ya. Get an amp + 1 12" sub.

I'm jealous! But be smart, and dont show off.

Exactly what was it that you did that was Working your ass off????

blackknight · 10-24-2010, 11:47 AM

pics or it didnt happen.

LED Crazy · 10-24-2010, 11:50 AM

Performance mods are a bad idea when you just get the car. FIRST break in the engine. VERY IMPORTANT THING TO DO! I'm almost at 1k miles.. I am going to be easy on her until she is fully broken in.

Can you explain how you worked hard for a car your mom gave you?
