Hey BBC, just wondering if you got my PM.

Finally hit triple digits here. I feel better about my temps vs last year. This was cruising around downtown 195F coolant with 100F ambient. Cruising on the highway with AC full blast it got to 207F. What are other people seeing with similar ambient temp? Wondering if I'm being paranoid.

I know there will be divide opinions. My wife hates it but my kids think it's cool I plan to wear it for fun to car meets and races if I get back out there. I still have the factory deck lid and spoiler unmolested so I can swap back and forth.

I'm pretending to be Cran

A buddy had this, non running. I wanted some rotors for a display and he said I could have them if I tear it down.
