    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Might handle a shit ton better with a rear sway bar added on.I want the supercharger and sway bar for mine. The bar will come after christmas, supercharger some point in the future.JHandles WAY worse than the Cadillac which shocked me completely. I figured it'd be an upgrade across the board. Sway bar is not the problem either. Calibration and ride height of the suspension are.Well that makes sense. What type of calibration would you change on it? J New springs, shocks, sways, links basically everything. Needs to be way lower and tightened up significantly.

    Also one of those, not sure you want to sell. Perhaps keep it and get a car.

    Tough one to sell in what timeframe? If I buy it, I'll keep it at least three years. Work will then have paid for $22k of it. I'd be only interested if they come down to at least $45k which means I'd have to sell it for >$20k to be okay. I think you could part it out for that...

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Nope, too cheap for the Panamera. Can't find one for less than $80k. Two vehicles means one outside or I build another garage stall....which if I were staying here isn't out of hte question.This is interesting:http://www.autosourcedallas.net/web/used/Cadillac-Escalade-2010-Addison-Texas/10561008/Not saying I trust whomever built it, but I can't say I would think any Escalade owner dumping that kind of money into that thing would just let any old shop do it.My thought exactly. Considering it is priced at about the parts costs for me to build one and is newer than I would it is attractive if done well. I have a call into the shop to see what sort of records they have.

    CPO CTT doesn't work since I can't afford newer than 08

    Of course. That speaks to Infiniti as I can give it to my wife.

    That would change if one would pop up in the right price range that was meticulous, but I've seen shit.

    I actually am to the point where I sort of just want this done. At this point there is an 80% chance the Porsche is off the list.

    Depending of course on who built it.

    Of course car shopping got me into trailer shopping and that sucks too. Enclosed and < 83" isn't so easy.

    What is considered Sundown's SQ sub?

    Care to elaborate? Have you bought, installed and listened to the SD-8? I would rather run a Dayton HO than 2 SD-8's sealed; therefore I wouldn't switch from the HO to the 8's and would not see that as an improvement. Not sure what that has to do with bought & installed. In fact, most people who buy things favor them for the wrong reasons.

    Neither include push button start. Fucking 1965.

    And then I'd rather drive the Porsche.

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Truck $32k Suspension $1k Boost $6k Brake $4k Wheels & Tires $2.5k Total: $45.5k UGH. Same cost as the Porsche.

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Those are 24's with 305's on them. That of course is another $1500 in wheels and $1000 in tires. Also has a 16/14" brake setup. Then add $6k for FI.

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    Buy the fx35 and put a supercharger on it. They are the same as the 350z and G35's as far as the engine goes. You can pull 450hp out of it and it would feel a lot lighter on its feet than the rest.The only downfall with that is: 1) 35 is rated to only tow 2000lbs. ONLY difference is the engine....but it is a rating. My sled trailer is more than that 2) Been done on the forums and somehow is still slower than the fx50's. I don't get it, but they have some magic sauce in the v8 setup. Probably same reason there are no kits or anything for the fucking v8. This ride height repair is $1100

    How many miles were on it when it went away?

    Welcome to the IHoP v.2

    No money is at least $1k as I have to have some residual, but whatever.

    Or I could do a short lease on a Ford Sport Trac Adrenalin and own it in 2 years for no money.
