Agree 100%

Also limited headlights (same as Sti) looks much better without chrome crap

Next time you are free let me know, we will meet up and you can grab some pics
so many things wrong here from a camera perspective.

Not sure what you mean. I am not into cameras, and never owned on in my life (aside from standard camera on phone). Then again I never bought a CD in my life or downloaded song, as I don't listen to music.

I spent my money on A050 and on my 2 wheels or 4 wheels at the track, as that is my passion

Here are a few pictures wife took of one of the track rats that we took a trip in few months back I don't know if quality comes through, as they were all 13MB+, and I had to resize them to upload.

Camera is her hobby, and I don't meddle in it...just like she doesn't meddle in my car/bike choices/hobbies

Nice pics, she's got a good eye. The first and third one could have been in the Elise brochure!

Just being honest

It is ironic. My best friend is the medical photo/video director at one of the largest hospitals in the US.

My wife has this full room of umbrella and equipment and all this garbage

And YOUR location says some photography forum...

I am SURROUNDED by you people!!!!!

funny you say that...
ESPECIALLY now with the Milltek exhaust...
I rarely have the radio over 20 for background at red lights...but I have no intention of upgrading the system at all...aside from not necessary, no extra weight!

I'm guessing the hosting site knows it's not a FWD car and is making some assumptions and is auto correcting for the car?

Looks awesome, man...

Date night last night...wife out in the S in perfect weather...had a wonderful time. Best time in the S ever...big deal because she's been pregs so it's been 10 months since she's ridden in it and she despises it normally. Us going out when it wasn't hot out, and with the new milltek exhaust not being overly loud...she actually enjoyed herself.

Awesome

I have arqray titanium and no cat on my Lotus
No complaints from wife ever

Wife didn't get in my S when pregnant . But that is bone stock. Issue is she likes to put down on car , whereas all my convertible has HT year round as I didn't buy them for the convertible aspect but rather due to sports car

Good Luxk with the pregnancy

Pregnancy? I have a 2 month old daughter fuckin my shit up!
Thanks, man...

Yeah, no doubt...B ain't into cars at all though...every time we'd go out with the S top down she'd complain about the wind/noise/heat and I'd be like, you know how many hos wish they were riding in this convertible with me!?!? I'm surprised she hasn't murdered me yet.

Ah congrats !

We are the opposite

She wants wind in hair blah blah

And I don't want dust particles inside my car or wind messing up my hair

Thus HT on 365 days a year for ever!

Although in the above Elise 1000 mile trip we made compromise and did soft top and on our 4 day trip we put (reluctantly) top down for 2 days, SIGH

If the Lexus ISC is ever updated with the new design language I am going to get one for the wife so she stops bugging me about taking top off on my cars

Hos?


EJ is the older Subie boxter engine. Non-DFI, I believe? The newer DFI engine went into the WRX but the STi is still using the older tech.
