Cool, I just can't get past how good that thing sounds. Screw the performance, I just want my car to sound like yours.


Maybe I'll record it, burn it onto a CD, then play it really loud so my car sounds cool.

Normally you would'nt hear those words coming out of my mouth, but to have my car sound like that, I'd prolly actually give up some HP.

Thats how much I like it. I'd date his car if I could.
