I upgraded a few months ago - got mine from Suncoast for $1250, but noticed they have since raised the price. After I ordered, I got a copy of Excellence magazine and saw a few places in there...

If the dealer won't show you the real invoice to prove it, it's clear they have something to hide. With the access the consumer has to information these days over the internet, I simply wouldn't...

Thanks for the replies. It isn't RPM dependent - it does it throughout the gears and doesn't sound like alternator whine - I've had that on other cars where you can actually hear it in the stereo and...

Well, I tried new fuses - that wasn't the problem. I'm guessing the dimmer switch is broken or fried somehow. Made an appt. for Thursday - good thing I noticed it right away - my warranty expires in...

I was going around a hairpin corner, going uphill and low and behold, here comes a motorhome towing a jeep downhill and completely in my lane! I was going about 30-35 and swerved to the left,...

Not sure what you mean by "fully retrofit" but if you mean you don't have the auto leveling feature that the factory installed liltronics have, you are right. They still rotate up on high beam, but...

Anyone painted their brake calipers?

I've been considering painting my brake calipers red to go along with the Boxster S wheels that I put on my 01' "non-S" 986. I've seen some do it yourself kits online, but was wondering if anyone has...
