Good news! At least with all the rain over the last couple days the roads will be pretty clean when they finally dry up. Let's all collectively wish for no more snow, ice or salt!

Thanks - will likely be leaving it as is for now.  Most likely mod would be an exhaust & maybe stiffen up the chassis somewhere down the road once there are more aftermarket options.

That's true for not there not many aftermarket parts for it, but as I know the cat backs, air intakes and suspension kits are coming up very soon.

Hello baby.
So dropped into the dealer this morning to sign papers and make it all official.
Sales guy conveniently has it parked right outside his office window.  Asks if I want to go for a drive... "F*CK Yeah!"  Not sure if I actually said the F part, but it's quite possible... :P

Love it.    :heart:     Got back to dealer just in time for skies to open up a downpour. 

As long as it's not snowing & sh!tty on Saturday, I bring 'er home.

I am worried that when I go car shopping next time, I'll end up driving a new miata, and end up buying that instead of something more practical (and affordable). We'll see.

Best part was the price.  $ 2,499   :o
But that included paint and upholstery protection.

I declined, by the way...

Forget that. If you plan on driving it in shitty weather a lot then get it Krowned regularly. If it's just a fair weather car then don't worry about it.

For sure.  Those modules are the biggest snake oil thing going.
Was a bit surprised they were pushing it as the dealer has been great to deal with.. but I guess it's the sales manager's job to try & sell that $hit.
At least when I said 'no thanks' after the spiel, that was the end of it.
