I don't think so. I'm always using Google Maps/Waze (bluetooth connection) which will always have the most up-to-date roads...especially in Northern VA where road construction/additions are never ending.

Sorry - should've went more into detail...the phone connects via bluetooth so the voice is through the car speakers, but I use my phone for the visual.

Got my Custom Exhaust put in yesterday.

Invidia Midpipe with Joe Z Axle-Back Exhaust

Custom quad burnt tips are coming in about a week.

Cold Start from this morning

Sounds awesome, are you going to remove the stock tips from the rear valance so it shows the quads? How would that be done? I had burnt quad tips on my other car, I actually still have them sitting in my garage after I changed exhausts.

thank you! Yeah I'm using the stock diffuser and removing the chrome tips of the diffuser. And then I'll be able to show the quads. If you still have them and want to sell them PM me I'm interested!

Got some new chemical guys polish in, going to do paint correction soon. Today it was going to be my 2nd fill up since owning the car, so I put in royal purple max clean fuel cleaner in before filling up. Prior to that I also disconnected the battery to reset the ECU and learn my driving habits for the transmission. There may be another way to reset this, back with my BMW I could hold the accelerator pedal down for 25 seconds in ACC mode and it would relearn the driving for the transmission. If some bought cars recently you might want to do that, you could have had a granny driving it and its shifting like it in auto mode. Going to also be wrapping some trim in some 5d CF I got a huge roll of.

I'm hoping to get mine out of storage. Been there all week since I'm traveling and didn't want it sitting at the airport. Looking forward to home and driving the GS.
