LOL... Gabe is just jealous of the mileage my wife gets in her Prius And actually, ours is the Prius V, not the regular, so we get "only" 44 mpg in the city. DARN. It makes up for my sub-15mpg I get with Marilyn.

Gabe

Does the "V" stand for Very expensive?

And foreVer to re-coup the savings via gas mileage?

Cuz $40k+ for a small station wagon is just foolish

FromZto5

$40k?????????????????? where'd you get that....

LOL.

Honestly, we paid sub 25k for her. they're cheap! No recouping cost since it's already lower priced than an equivalent "other" gasoline wagon. So boom, I just OBAMA'd you.

In the end, the Prius was HER choice of car. I told her she could get ANYthing she wanted, and she wanted a cheap Prius Who am I to argue with my beloved wife and the mother of our children.... hehe. Happy wife, happy life. There's NO way I would have chosen that car. Let's get that straight. LOL

Would you guys like to see HDR photos and high quality pics of Portia too? (KIDDING!!!)

H.E. 1 - bird 0
This has been one of my fears since I installed the roush lower delete, but the only damage are a few bent fins this time. Found it when I went into my garage and smelled death around my car.

Don't we have a deal with the pigeons?

Gabe

As my Roush grille delete kit is (kinda) waiting to be installed :/

Wasn't there a mesh kit available at one point for the Roush kit?

rmurer

omg lol i thought i hit a bird the other week while doing some data logging but found no body.

in other news got the tires on and the fit, kinda had a fear they wouldn't.

I dont mind how they stick out passed the fender, more tire = more traction

here's before

A few new mods. Stop Tech 6P 15", I have some Steeda slotted 13" for the rear coming. A DSS aluminum drive shaft, LP over the axle pipes, and a Boss alcantara steering wheel, alcantara shift and brake boots, to match the alcantara on the Recaros.

^ nice Tommy. One of the cleanest and tasteful stangs on this site. Love the theme you got going.

I see you have Corsa Extremes too. We're rare, but we're the best

Got any vids? Also, what's with the LP OTAs? I have Borla for x and ota. What's your mid pipe? still stock H or X?

Stage_3

Very nice.
What are your driving impressions so far?
How many miles are they good for?

TommyV

Thanks, I love my Corsa's. The LP's really woke 'em up. Stock H-pipe for now and no videos, sorry.

rmurer

Not sure how many miles they are good for.

Haven't put them through too much yet. But the little driving i've done, they hook up better of course. I know some people complain about how loud tires can be, but i don't think they are at all though that could change when im on the freeway.

Stage_3

Awesome man.
Yeah,... I bet they hook well. They may be a bit louder on the freeway, but not enough to really make it bad I'm thinking.
Enjoy!

You have the Ford Racing Recaros right? I wonder if they'd sell the covers separately. I want those suede inserts!

Packn some meat.

Agree. I am loving my Corsas more and more. At idle and cruising, they are stock-ish. Then tap on the gas, and voila. Magic. And those laser etched angled tips? Joyous....

TommyV

Yep, the FR ones, not sure if they sell the covers.
