was anything salvageable off the old car? ie rims or anything?? assuming you had stock parts to swap back on.

I may have to make a special trip to NY just to get a ride in the back seat

Unfortunately I was not able to salvage 90% of the parts The rims got further damaged by the saltwater, the exhaust and coilovers I would not be able to take them off without taking the car to a shop. I did save the JDM visors though

Nice car. To get the Heads-up display and Pre-Collision system with Radar cruise control on the West Coast I had to special order the car. Oh, the wait. It is a killer.

Congrats man, welcome back to the GS family. I was here in Manhattan when Sandy hit and it was no joke.

i tried to get every option but you can't have the NV and LKA. have you tried the DRCC yet? it's a good option to have. the Driver attention monitor is something i haven't tried, don't think i want to close my eyes while driving to see if it works.

Yea you are right, it's either NV or LKA. I think the LKA is more useful though Unless you live somewhere were there are no street lights, then NV might be useful.

I did try the DRCC and it is awesome, but I don't fully trust it yet

Regarding the driver attention monitor, I tried covering it with my hand, but that did not do much

I'm up for it, we would need to find the darkest street for it to work properly

Thank you! Yeah, I really don't know how much longer I'll be able to hold on. Already, tints, fog hid's and jdm visors are on the list Wheels and suspension (maybe) but after the winter. When are you switching to 4GS ?
