Great looking car, congratulations! Your comment about finding a car for your wife so she can drive to work cracked me up. Let us know what you ended up getting for her.

I got a Manual this time. The only thing I regretted on the 13 GS A. Not hard enough shifting. I haven't driven a stick in 25 years so first gear on a hill with folks watching was a treat.

Congrats on the ride and make sure you hit the track with it. When you're ready to add some power or some new looks hit us up.

Very True! For me, the 1LZ has all the right stuff! The few items that I thought were nice in the 2LZ package, I picked up, such as the 2 pc. cargo cover and cargo net.
