The song is not what matters, it's the people who chat on the phone and drive thinking they have a right to continue their call in an obviously illegal fashion. Hope she got ticketed.

Went running today with two of the girls from work, and damn, one of them had dat ass and titties. She said I shouldn't stop just because the wind is gusting, to which I said, "I don't come with natural aerodynamics that help the air flow around my body."

Fusion modding is starting to make some progress. Already got a tune and lowering springs. The company that made the tune is also working on a full bolt-on kit (they already have a downpipe in the works). There is also a downpipe and FMIC from the Focus ST that apparently fits without modification. And Full-Race also just announced they are working on a full build, including possibly turbo upgrades.

I may have walked into another money pit Nothing as extreme as my 335i of course, but 300awhp and 350awtq would be alright.

Yea, that's been done for awhile, but I had to clean it up a little. I wasn't very happy about this - they put two computer case fans in to keep things cool, but did the most half-assed job you could think of. One of them wasn't even secured down, it just happened to be snug between my main power cable and the frame. The other was screwed down with one screw. Well...a couple months ago I started hearing some buzzing/vibrating. Finally got sick of it, checked it out - they installed a fan with 3 blades broken off, so it wobbled itself loose and started vibrating.

I replaced both with nice new ones, and glued them to the sides of the walls that enclose the MS-8. Still going strong.

They also fucked up the center channel...when I turn the car off after driving, but don't open the doors, it still plays through the center channel (and only that). So I don't know how they even wired it up to. Also, taking phone calls seems to be more difficult, not sure if it's the staging or balancing or what, but it sounds a lot more muffled than stock.

Just a few things I need to tweak, maybe take it to a more serious place like musicar up in Oregon one of these days and have them take it to the next level.

Ahhh that sucks, I still plan on getting a custom corner trunk sub with them too. And musicar is perfect but the cost.

Nice, I always figured for the Fusion to be mod-worthy, if ever so modestly. How does it drive? I never drove one of those.

I mean it's a big fucking car, but with the lowering springs it handles a little better now. I'm thinking about getting a strut and sway bar. But hood struts were just realized (yes, we don't have them), and it doesn't seem like it will fit with a strut bar...so I'm debating which one I want.

And having AWD is awesome, it definitely feels more planted and secure coming out of corners.

I mean I'll always remember it, but it was a 6 year old car...I like having all the new features of this one. Plus I wanted something I'd be more likely to take on long trips - I'm thinking about getting a 12-14' camper trailer. The direction I took my BMW in didn't really allow for that, and took up all my cash too, lol. I wouldn't say I miss it, but rather I enjoyed it and had fun with it.

Your trolling is always welcome here, but it's getting pretty boring here too. Gotta wait for the weather to get cold again for more activity.

Guess so, I don't know how I'd feel giving it up, luckily it's an NA so it won't be as much of a headache.
