Thanks for all the congrats and to those who helped me get more info on it before I bought it - The fender vent is really dirty! The car needs to be washed and I do need to get the oil and filter changed ASAP - it's on the to-list for this week. I'm also going to be needing new tires within 6-9 months so I'm sure I'll be coming back the experts in this group for advice since I like to drive fast fun cars but will need to grow in my knowledge about how they actually work and what parts work best for this AMAZING car!

I can't post a link to the car because I'm new but I can off that it is in Houston and the VIN# is JTHBP5C24C5010602. Would you buy it or not? Thanks for any and all help/input you can offer!
I was seriously considering that same one, great choice. Motortrends right?

All kinds of cars there and a unique parking lot hidden behind Denny's.. Safe place with DJ music outside and Nice Police officer watching out.
We could park these ISF's together and educate a few people about the ISF!! Ha!!
Mine is 2012 Nebula Gray with Red Interior. I live in Castle HIlls.

Sounds like fun! Wish I lived in San Antonio - I'm in the Dallas-Ft Worth area. If I'm ever down in SA, I'll PM you and we will meet up
