Oh, I forgot to ask, 3.2 v6 or the 2.0t 4cyl? Auto, or standard?

Taking an Suv (even a german one) to 240 is certainly not boring :O

 

Oops - 2.0T, Auto (yes, boring).

Oh! - I am spending a good deal of $$ on the car because it's going to be my new child. Planning ceramic tint all around, 3m clear car bra, bumper+fender+hood+mirrors, and underbody rust proof + oil in doors. Plan to clay the car over when I get it and wax it twice.

There is someone in town I trust to the Nth level. He's always looked out for my previous cars and we've become good "friends" as can be. If you want car washes + waxes etc, tinting etc, go to A1 car cleaning on University Ave near the Williams there (between King + Weber), and ask for the Owner "Chris". Tell him Vincent sent you and you should get a discount. He knows I'm **** about my car and he always does make sure everything is absolutely perfect (even the $15 hand washes) before he hands it back.

Heck, if we all get together i'm sure we can get a bigger discount.

 

I think I'm also going to Lojack my car. Any thoughts?

 

I have no experience on theft recovery systems, Boomerang is the one I hear advertised all the time.

Your car is pretty hard to steal on its own though, with the factory immobilizer and all, so Im not sure its worth the investment. And I don't see K-W has a hotspot for auto thefts either.

 

True, but at only $6/month, it's hard to ignore...i'm getting all worked up again about people jacking my car. I know these things have a tilt sensor, are the wheel locks worth it then?...thanks Jurjen

 

LOL wheel locks are definitely worth it. 15 bucks and it your wheels are safe. For $6/month, why not? I was expecting it to cost a lot more.

Just keep in mind your car will not start without your key (its got a chip in it) so unless thieves are rolling around with a flatbed, your car isn't going anywhere without you!

 

Hmm - true....stupid install is $300 though, we'll see if the guys at the shop pass my 'shadiness' inspection...

 

OMG!!! how do you get clear coners??

I've been thinking of getting rid of it, but ...I might scratch the inside...

how did you do that? did you go to a shop?

 

ahaha no i did it myself. my pic to the let shows one of the headlights. I love it man. Not hard to do at all.


AND ALL YOU WATERLOO/KITCHENER/CAMBRIDGE/GUELPH PEOPLE LOOK AT THE OTHER THREAD I STARTED ABOUT SETTING UP A WEEKLY MEET SINCE WE HAVE ENOUGH AUDIS NOW!!!

 

weekly almost seems too often to get a good turn out, why not bi-weekly, or monthly?



I'll check out the thread.
