trust me, if you had my commute, and would have had to pay what I had to pay to get a 6 speed (keep in mind the car was only out a few months, and dealers in my area were getting 6-7k premiuims over msrp) you'd be plenty stoked with having the auto, besides like I said it's my daily, it gets stuck in traffic alot, a 6 speed would only benenfit me if this car was my toy and I had something else to drive every day.....which will happen someday I hope

Here we go.

Just got back from an AWESOME trip up to Scotland, including driving over the steepest road in the UK at Applecross, with crazy hairpins and tiny thin 1 way track.....

The supercharger gave me an awesome violin like soundtrack and performed great...no more running out of poke when going up hill!

Also some other pics delayed for cunning reasons, but which make my 8 even more "the best yellow ever".....









All in all an incredible trip and finally my car (after 5 years nearly!) is exactly the 8 I always wanted.

front are 19x8.5 +36 tires are 235/3519
rear are 19x9.5 +29 tires are 265/30/19 (and they rub inner fender guts to pieces, but the lip is rolled so no issue there)

Very Nice California Style! Hope you're getting as much enjoyment out of it as I am.

Btw, I saw this car in Orlando today:



Anyone know who it belongs to?

^Yeah the only way to pull off that hood and wing is to have some aftermarket wheels and bodykit. On that car it looks rediculous.

Cheers Bastage, yeah I'm off to an airfield day soon to compare my NA times to what I can do supercharged (I did the same day with what should be similar track set up pre charger)

Really looking forward to it. I just wish petrol was cheaper! (Or I was really rich!)
