I'm perfectly chill. You're the one complaining about your own car, joke or not. And I'm sorry I'm a "noob" because I don't have gold status like yourself.
When was I complaining about my own car?

no he is completely serious, he got ripped off

I got an 03 and that is exactly what I wanted!! Got myself glass rear window, plus I still have 9k rpm which is fun to upgrade from a gsr that stopped at 8100. I would be totally fine driving the newer ones though, just way beyond my price range and I wouldn't see a point in changing cars unless something bad happens to my 03!

I'd get the MY03, but I do prefer the 06/07 seats and AP2 rear bumper.

I'd stick with the MY05 but would contemplate getting a different color, Suzuka or white.

Imo the 9k redline is like neon on a strip club - its all bling and the real fun is elsewhere... but some people really love the bling! That was just my opinion after driving 03s and 04s back to back to back.

The car is if anything faster each time it is updated, and its certainly more civil - that's a win-win in my book.

Same thing (04-05), but in a different color.

Well after driving my AP1 from Florida to California this July, and having just driven my 07 AP2 from Minneapolis to California for thanksgiving. I will say at times I couldn't discern the differences, but overall the AP2 as much as I hate to admit is a much nicer package overall. Hit snow and Ice in the Colorado Rockies on the way back and I'll tell you what, the VSA I so didn't want was probably the only reason I am not dead. 45 straight minutes surrounded by semi's in the snowy patchy icy road with the little VSA light blinking constantly at me. I miss my 02 but if I had to do it over again, I would buy another 07 already!!!!


And am I the only one that got the sarcasm about " leaving in nothing"?I thought it was pretty funny myself.

If I could've done it all over again, I would've waited another year for the AP2 to come out.
