Default Loving my new HR

I just can't get enough of the way this thing revs out. Got the JWT intakes on and that's one great growl. Got the Invidia Gemini exhaust on and that sounds great until the intakes drown it out. Just got to get a friend to drive it for me so i can get a taste of it going down the road. Is it just me or has the suspension been reworked in the 07-08s? My old 2004 was great but modded and this car seems to handle better and its stock. I'm also starting to think that the LSD's that come in the enthusiast models were crap or mine was just worn out because around corners this new one plants the back tires and moves. Can't wait to get my gt spec braces on and sway bars

Picked this one up in St. Louis last week, 2008 with 2400 miles on it. Its got 4000 now can't get out of it. Anyone thinking about selling their 2003-2006 to get a 07-08 HR I say if you can find a nice one and can afford it, well worth the price.

Here's a pic from the other day after I waxed it up, paint has a lot of depth and metallic to it for black.


Anyway can't say enough great things. Pulled off the impossible swap from 04 to 08 without wasting a lot of money. Got a great new car black is my color, all my friends wonder why I wear black shirts all the time and now I've got the car to go with it haha. Can't wait for the **** talking to commence. My best friend saw the front end yesterday while we were out and just yelled out sounding so redneck it was hilarious "DAMN THAT ***** FU*KING CARBON FIBER!! THATS THAT **** ON THE SPACE SHUTTLE." My friends are not car people but that is pretty damn funny when you see other people looking at him like he's nuts.

Lip is the VSV1 lip from evo-r. Hes running a special on them now, got here, fit is great, maybe a gap or two here and there but nothing you can see unless your close up on it. I love these wheels but two of them got here bent, so im dealing with the guy i bought them from and hopefully wont have to do anything rash to make it work out. Either they need to fix them or they need to swap them for another set of wheels (they dont make these anymore) or just refund my money and Ill go buy something else.
Im actually in TN so the tint really isn't much of an issue around here, was sitting right next to a cop yesterday and he didn't seem to care. I bought this one completely stock, just took some of the money from selling my old one to buy parts.
