New wrap finally came in. Decided to start with the side vents. It's the last bit of chrome left. It was pretty easy to take off the vents. The chrome piece was a little difficult to remove.

You definitely need to upgrade 203banshee. This is a beast of a car. There is sooo much power (especially since its Stage 2) that I have yet to get close to full throttle (the weather does suck right now in Seattle). It is pretty different in terms of driving because of the dual-clutch transmission but you'll get used to it soon. Also the M-Sport heads up display is crazy (I'll try take a photo today).

I would recommend looking at '13 over '14 as they were like $5-7k cheaper. The big difference that I saw was the headlights and steering wheel but I already bought a LCI steering wheel, just need to buy an airbag. Try to find a car with a good amount of history and get an extended warranty.

yeah , it is definitely a monster. I've ridden in a few and they are sick. I can only imagine as a daily. I am trying to keep my head down and work instead of spending more money unfortunately lol. It's not easy...

I do love the LED headlights though. That might force me to go for the 14'+. I don't care as much for the steering wheel.

How much did your extended warrant cost ya ?

I do too, I might upgrade to LED which is a few grand. Just consider '13 because they are in a "steal" market right now.

I havn't got it yet because I need to go to a Stage 1 tune because most warranties wont cover engine modifications.

yeah i hear ya.

Don't bother man. These warranties don't check under the hood. Especially if you bring it to an independent mechanic. They will do the work without reporting you.

If the warranty company sends out a rep to check on the car, just find another company who doesn't do that.

This is so true...I found one the other day w/ 108k miles on it (it sold) for 26900. I'm guess it sold for about $25k or so. The 13 is the better bargain for sure...but man I want a 14 w/ the comp pkg!

Yeah you can find some good deals on '13 right now. I was looking at a '14 Orange but I passed on it because it was comp package with carbon ceramic brakes. I read enough reviews that they are expensive to replace. I'll never really hardcore track this car so not worth it. Also wife didn't like the orange. For me the comp package for wasn't worth it because it's really easy to tune these cars to over 600+ hp
