the only worthwhile addition to the Spec B is the Bilstein and alloy suspension components. the rest is a bunch of bling.
for $10,000 over what i paid for my teh LGT, you can have it.

You never know. The STi is a 2.5l also. Of course I'm most likely dreaming, but if they're asking such a premium it might just be true....

For those of you in search of really fast 4 doors, and for Alan especially, Porsche is going ahead with the 4 door Panamera. Rumored to be launched with the Cayenne Turbo V-8 at 450hp. AWD is also a possibility. Of course it will be in the $125k range most likely. Sure sounds like a Maserati Quattroporte killer!

I've really liked your recent posts. Seems like you have a serious appreciation for the finest automobiles from Europe! Also seems you've talked about quite a few different cars recently - seems like you've taken over where I left off with having a new flava of the month! Still, your 'flavas' are definitely worth tasting! -Chike

I think the red needs to be encased(like having a red insert) and I think that will make it look much better. I'll save my moneys for something else.
