No race gas, no ecu, no pulleys, no headers, nothing. Just normal 93 octane gas from Texas.

Higher octane gas won't do anything for you unless your ECU is tuned for it.

Its nice to see someone who knows this! Ive heard so many guys talk about putting premium in and saying they noticed a power gain. Morons!

Wrong.

Those are SL55 wheels you get with the 030 package.

The SL65 wheels are gunmetal...



Very nice car

Thank you!



Thanks for the compliment... BUT you are wrong

my wheels are SL65 wheels, and they are gunmetal... maybe the pics dont show it well enough, but well enough, they are gunmetal and they are SL65 wheels
I've never seen them look so bright but yeah, I was wrong, sorry!

Again, love the 55
