I am definitely getting one, I’m just holding out for SPRING because I don’t want to be tempted to burn my snow tires off the rims.

heh heh... I can attest to that. CLPower's 3.0 with a CAI makes the Type S engine sound like a little dog running away with its tail between its legs.

I can't wait to get one!!
