Guys, I just read that IOS5/6 has issues with reconnecting to bluetooth devices. That why you have to manually reconnect the iphone every time. Once this issue gets resolved, then I will think about getting an iphone 5.

Dont worry guys. I have an HTC Vivid 4GLTE and I love it. I was referencing the people that wanted the music gateway to work as it should need to wait till the Iphone gets that issue fixed.

Sounds pretty good to me.
Repairs are done. Just getting some nice new parts now to make it unique. Indefinably worth it!
Update 2/16/2012
Got my TPMS switched to the new rims, and changed the brake pads to Wearever ceramic. 0 Brake Dust!!!!
The pads were purchased through Advance Autoparts. They were the same as the Mercedes AMG. I read some good reviews on them through serveral boards, and said what the heck. They were $90 for fronts and back. Ill tell you guys, I have been pounding these, and the grip is incredible, no noise what so ever, and absolutley no brake dust on the rims after a 500 mile trip to Orlando and back. I highly recommend them! You cannot go wrong.
Part No. CNAD 1365 Fronts $51.99
Part No. CNAD 1366 Rear $45.99

I almost thought it was a misprint... I went ahead and ordered 2 sets of everything!
I just bought those brake pads and wow, for the price it almost seems to good to be true. Then when I put them on earlier I was amazed. 0 brake dust, 0 squeaks and great stopping power. Definitely beats the oem pads that lexus charges close to 400.
What up Sarge? We met at Elite Import at JM? How's it going? I finally got my F a few weeks ago, shortly after the event. It been awesome! Done a few things so far, more on the way. Will need F wisdom from local F guys!
