I'm getting around 270 miles per tank compared to the GTI at 300 miles per tank.

It's why I think I'm getting out of cars until I get at least 90K miles on this GTI. The Mustang GT is great but it is quickly losing its shine just like the FR-S did. :thumbsup:

Tech Triangle NC, Do It.

How about VPN between the two buildings instead? It's still secured but you can use the Internet and a wired network to do the connection. However you'll need Internet access and a VPN router in both buildings to accomplish this.

I dynamatted the FR-S. It didn't do much. The biggest change in interior sound volume came from swapping the exhaust to a resonated perrin cattback.

When the time comes, I'm going to uninstall the turbo, DP, BBK, wheels, and intake and swap the stock parts back on. I don't expect to break even on the parts, in fact I might trade the GTI in to carmax for another MK6 and put the mods back on.

I think the hellcat and the tesla should have been closer. That hellcat driver did not know how to launch. It looked like he kept overpowering the tires which caused the car to kick in traction control or something.

So true. Make a Kinja blog and post this on Jalopnik. After that talk about the next car DeMuro is buying or the lack of manual, V8, RWD wagons.

Deep Impact Blue, 2013, Mustang GT Premium, Black Leather, and CPO. AUTO - cause that is how I roll :paddle: Working numbers now. I'll post pics if I get it.

The seats are really comfy and the driving experience is great. However, I daily my cars and I can't daily the FR-S. It lacks the basic amenities that a Mazda3 or Corolla would have. In other news, I put in an offer for a 2013 Mustang GT at a local dealer. I'm just waiting to get a response...

You'd love the FR-S/BRZ then. :thumbdown:

I just want to know why he turned off traction control. With TC on he could have took off without hitting the median.

This would work then: Or maybe this: Pick ups are basically muscle cars from the 1960s-80s. Big V8's, bad suspension, bad brakes, RWD, etc. But if you were to lower one and put a brake kit on it then you'd have something pretty formidable and practical.

DAT MPG DOE

I called the dealer today to see if he would budge on the price and got a no. He even put me on hold to talk to the sales manager. Before we hung up though he mentioned two things: someone else was looking at the car (oh noes!) and the price was going back up in 2015 :iono: I'm in no hurry so...
