Hey guys. Just picked up the car today. So far I love it except like everyone else is saying I wish it was a little faster!

Here are my plans for mods in order of whats 1st. Tell me what you think. I already added 5% tint to the car and took the f sport/rc350 emblems off the back..

1. Black wrap on roof, chrome grille/window trim, red part of tail lights
2. Intake & Subwoofers/nav/tv hack
3. Lowering springs
4. Exhaust or muffler/resonator delete
5. Rims

The question is by doing the intake/exhaust will that make a noticeable difference in performance?

Also my last question is if I keep the stock rims and have them painted in gloss black do you think that will make them look amazing or should I go aftermarket?


Also heres my deal. I put $1500 down and my monthly payment is $520(Before 7% tax) a month for 48 month lease with 12k miles a year... was that a good deal?

Thanks everyone and look forward to being a member of the boards!

What did your car sticker for?

Mine stickered for 52,690. I leased it a few days ago, put 2k down, I'm paying 556 a month (that includes 9% tax and $18 for ding protection). I'm getting 10k miles (my work is 5 miles from my condo) on a 36/m lease.

Running the numbers it seems you got as great a deal as me if not better. Congratulations on both the car and the price!

Quick question - don't you get F-Sport floor mats in the U.S.?

Welcome to the club and congrats! The intake will give you a small gain, but an exhaust will do more. I'd leave the wheels as-is and get aftermarket wheels.
As far as your deal, you already got it so don't worry about it and enjoy your new car! Different regions get different deals.

I got the same mats as the OP.

Congrats OP! Can't go wrong with the red/white combo.

Look forward to seeing you fulfill that mod list
