I haven't gotten in trouble yet, but my heart has had a few moments when cops were sitting somewhere I *REALLY* didn't need them to be..

It'* the Satellite one, 6 disc indash, and my iPod connector runs into the CD changer hookup.

Nothing much for now, mostly some small subtle appearance mods for now.. Probably look at intake/GIAC chip/Forge Diverter valve next year, turbo back exhaust after that, coil-overs when the OE suspension gets worn out...

I'd hate to make the big boys feel like we're stealing the show when the road starts curving... And I don't have any vacation time with my new job 'till january..

- Mileage? @ 75MPH, AirCon on, it did 30 MPG in 85-90F weather last weekend, with some spirited accleration onto the freeway, passing, etc.. I've done about 40mpg @ 55-65 with the AC off.
- 4 Doors is same wheelbase and everything, just 4 smaller doors, and like $100-200 more brand new.
- Optioned like mine, about 26,500, I got it for $21,000, $5k down, $1k trade in, 320/mo.
- 3200ish sounds about right. To put that in perspective, "heavier" end of modern corvettes.
- Aftermarket parts are super abundant, and pretty affordable.

Brings back memories of my dads 00 Jet VR6.

I'll always have a spot for Veedubs.
