I was offered $38,175 for this car (w/o a spoiler) in CA. But, I'd have to have it shipped back here ($700) and add a spoiler ($300?) and then als add the tint and consider the free service ($1000).... that would bring me to $40,175. So, I obviously went with the local dealership. If I lived in CA I'd have been able to get a better deal than I did, though.

Yes, I am excited... !!!

This will be a major change for me. I currently drive a VW Touareg (SUV). I've driven big cars my entire life (even had a 7-series BMW for a short while). So, moving to a car this small is a big leap for me.

Why not start now... so far I plan to do the Nav Hack, Red-out tail lights, and do an aftermarket sound system. Might upgrade the wheels but I want to live with them for a while to see if I feel the cost is justified.

Anything else you think I should be doing? I'm not interested in any Carbon Fiber mods. I can't think of anything else off the top of my head that I've come across in this forum.

Just thought of another one I'll be doing - brake caliper stickers. Maybe an iPod integration kit too.

Anything else that should be on my list?
