2010 Prius with solar panel top...51 mpg City / best highway 56.6 mpg.
It's funny to park next to liberals then parking at the range
In town I have had more than one person give me a look of disgust when they see my Life Member of the NRA on my Prius and if I was not suppose to drive that kind of car.
At the gun range the first impression the car gives is that I must be A) Lost or B) I'm shooting my once a year 22 pistol so I can tell my friends how I am a shooter.

Replaced 16-17 mpg with 25 mpg...2008 VW R32
Less horsepower and not nearly as cool, but I am gonna retune the ECU and do some suspension work to get it where I would like it. The 2.0t does not sound nearly as nice as the 3.2L VR6 did though...
There are things you can do to a turbo to make it sound better... but I think an ABO on a stock car does more damage than good.Replaced 16-17 mpg with 25 mpg...

The Stage 1 APR tuning makes a HUGE difference in performance and I would definitely recommend it. Also, the KW V1 coilovers took the wife's wagon from a soft, mushy ride to the same level as my 335i with the sport suspension, great handling and comfortable ride. Definitely recommend the KW's if you're looking for coilovers.
I am gonna stage 1 APR tune it, do the motor mounts, and a rear sway bar first. The handling is decent now, I hope the rear sway gets it where I want it. If I do any suspension it will be H&R. What sucks, in VW terms, is that I really like the stock wheels... I got rid of my old BBS's and don't feel like buying more, so it is a tough call there... my old Jetta had APR-rear sway-H&R-motor mounts and it was great.
I also see a few videos of APR'd GTI's handing it to R32's, so if that mattered to me I would be OK too.

This is mine...
As of 7pm today, my 2008 Infiniti G35XS has been replaced with a 2011 Infiniti G37XS.
I fear change.
