Just another Beautiful Velocity Red---Finally
It finally was delivered today, I bought it sight unseen and it is absolutely outstanding. I can't wait to Zaino this car and add the strakes and other goodies. First thing will be turning the fog lights into running lights as per this group.
Did anyone ever say this group is GREAT! If not, great group of people and cars

Pretty
I'm getting too much attention with my titanium car as it is - imagine what would it be like with a red one :D
And yeah, besides the red, the blue is a great color too. Sometimes I wish I'd had gotten that - or maybe the green, with chaparral interior. Trouble is, being a dark color, it's harder to keep it clean.

Mike,
My list of must haves...........strakes, front mud guards, clear markers, window tint, remove wind deflector, car cover (grey), fog light re-wire.
Just the basics for now but after Carzoomers chip has been run a while, I will get it. Exhaust is OK but I don't want the extra noise to attract attention. Intake is interesting but I need to research them some more.
Thanks for all the great info, ideas and instructions.
Opps, forgot something very important.....Zaino will be hear today so this weekend I'll learn give it a try.

You might want to re-think removal of the wind deflector... I know you want to do this because of the looks, but those things are usually very functional. I know that my wife's Passat was absolutely unbearable when driven on the freeway with the sunroof open - after adding the wind deflector, it is OK to have the roof open up to 70 mph.

Actually, the wind noise from the open sunroof is not too bad. Of course, I came from a convertible, so my perspective might be off. One thing to note - put your air on recirculate rather than the fresh air setting. It makes a big difference in wind noise.
Wahoo!
Wahoo!

Thanks for the input on the wind deflector. Since this one is an easy on/off style, I'll just have to experiment with it. I have driven it for a few miles with it open and it does indeed work well and I don't think it looks too bad with the roof open.
Thanks
Thanks
