Whoever the morons and idiots are that happen to be in charge of things like this need fired. Dealers have the cars in stock but are told to keep them out back and not sell them but then people like otto are told that they'll be off from work for a week or so because no one's buying them--come on!! Wake up and smell the coffee DC and try to use your German brains!!
all 2001's.
I'm certain he has 2002's, since they always get the cars before anyone else in the region -- he's less than a mile from the rail yard.

For anyone going to Monterey next weekend, I should have a set with me for show and tell. They may or may nor be installed at that point because of my busy schedule from now until I head out for Monterey. I guess I'll be the default Guinea Pig. I'll be double safe because I already have the Euro side marker lights. Maybe I'll rewire the marker lights to come on with the parking lights.
Thanks
I purchased a road hazard warranty for my OE Michelin Pilot MXM4 tires ($200 each!) for $12 per tire.
I did the same with my "99 and never used it...go figure!
So now my question is, what is a good price for this tire? Again it's a stock Michelin 225/60VR16. What a waste...practically a brand new tire..
I saw on the Muth website that they support heated power mirrors like we all have. But with the Luxury Group, you get the tilt-mirrors and "the driver's mirror is auto-dimming/reacting to headlamp brightness when the standard inside auto-dimming day/night rear view mirrors adjust." I guess you would lose this functionality when replacing the mirror with one of the Muth ones. However they had a "Wide angle signal mirror" that just sticks onto your existing mirrors at
http://www.kwmuth.com/Products/Kits/200-0056-2.htm
These are like the small round mirror you see on attached to truck side mirrors. This way you could have both auto-dimming and signal mirrors, plus they also come in amber as well as red.
phat hood scoop indeed. not molded on tho
just urethaned. search up they have a website and you can email'em, lol. those aer herm's tires on there...toyo's.
How involved is installation of these mirrows. It looks like the actual glass is replaced in the existing shell and wired in. Will new holes need to be drilled for wiring or are there spare condutors in the original harness.

looks like have to take off door panel, loosen it anyway, and take off mirror housing, and pull the mirror out, then drill a small 1/4" hole between the housing bolts, to get the new wire thru. snip snip connect. replace replace, screw screw, and tighten. piece of cake
oh and the instructions with the kit are excellent, read them over at that link...

Travez: go with the duals and intake upgrade that others have done here---you get a good bump up in HP and improved gas mileage. If you want an acceleration boost, go the Avalanche route and get yourself some rocket fuel via Nitrous ---- also get a wing---the members here all boast to their wives how it increases horsepower and cuts fuel consumption-- ;-)

I recently had a blowout on one of my Goodyears.Not positive, but i thought I may have caught a curb but wasnt really sure by the way it blew. I didnt feel it strike the curb but was driving close to it. Looking at tire it didnt have scrape marks on it, just a tear so I figured it may have been caused by a sidewall defect. Brought it in and told them it just blew out. They were looking for nail holes or cuts in the tread portion of the tire saying a leaky tire could just blow due to low inflation---I felt I was getting a runnaround--then he tells me there is a cut on the tread probably due to a nail or something and that was probably the cause of the sidewall blowout and thus would not be covered. I asked to see the hole---he couldnt find it to show me so I know i was getting the runnaround---turns out they gave me a new tire for only $50 mounted. It had over 20k on the original so I was happy with this.

And today in his showroom he has 3 new Prowlers, 4 Vipers, a 67 Satellite HEMI and a 70 Road Runner HEMI. The 2002 300M is still on his lot.
To see the actual 2002 300M Special, look here:

well i took the M up for its appointment, and yes, he's going to make me a custom billet grill, and he can even put the wing back on there! (i think SOMETHING needs to be in there otherwise itd be too plain or something) and he's looking into see if he can put a cold air intake system on there for me too. hes gonna call me by monday at the latest and give me a price. im gonna leave it with him while im in the field for the next two weeks, starting tuesday.
now, i need to know by the time he calls (which could be in five minutes for all i know, but no later than monday) if and how many of you are interested in the grill, so i can see if i can get a group discount. he can just make em to the specs of mine, should fit everyones. if you guys would like though, you can wait and see what mine looks like befreo you decide. let me know! *just trying to do my part, give back some of what all ive taken
p.s. tomorrows my wife and i's first anniversary!
Just got back from Galveston on a work/fish trip.
(work all day-fish at night ;>) )
Stay safe in the field.

We also understand that the Prowler Pro gears will work in the M tranny. They lower the shift point about 25%, allowing the M to take advantage of it's high RPM acceleration. On the top end gas mileage will suffer, but it will knock a chunk of time off your 0-60. The gears are about $1,500 at www.prowlerpro.com. We also think Dean at prowlerpro is messing with other M mods, so they may be the place to keep an eye on.

Did you go outside of Boston ? I see at least 3 a day... Although I doubt they would be very popular in Boston with the traffic and the maniac drivers...
