the "sapele wood" trim that is available in the car just didnt do anything for me... instead, the standard is some sort of pseudo carbon look stuff. i just dont think wood is appropriate for a car like that. i wouldnt get it in an m5 either. i had dark poplar in my 535 and it drove me crazy.

had a guy pull beside me in a "heavily" modified 300 srt8 a couple weeks ago... he rolled down his window, told me that he had about 14k in the engine on his car and just wanted to see how bad i'd pull him... after a ton of wheel spin through first and halfway through second, i walked him like he was standing still. disclaimer: we were on a 65 mph road and the limit was never exceeded.
at the next light he said, "after you, sir" and motioned up the road.

I'll go ahead and predict the first response: "it needs to be lowered!"
There is only one company that makes springs for
It and the traits haven't been great... The magnetic ride suspension is a pita to modify. Eibach supposedly has some in testing...
