Not feeling the blue RPF's Gunmetal or Black would be nice. I know you are rubbing with the star specs. I was with my Rpf/Star specs. My drop wasnt as drastic either

Whoever the previous owner was, it looks like he/she made a few subtle changes and a few amenities (sunroof and parking sensors). I like the matching burnt orange accents, especially around the shifter. I'm really liking those teal RPF1s, also.

Are you still in Chi now? If so, we should meet up sometime or start a meet or something.

Yes it does leak a little bit, and heaven forbid i run it through a car wash..the water pressure forces itself through the bad seal spots and into the car, i would have to have a towel ready and needless to say i hand wash now
