Stripes work well with back grille IMHO. All a bit 75th anniversary style. Great drive today Black is very cool indeedy ! Excellent choice ! Geneva 2016 plus 8' The Green Godess' 4 side exits .

Jays Member of the Inner Circle Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 14,009 Cumbria UK	Originally Posted By 4/4Boy Donald My 4/4 sport seems to go v well. am sure the ecu has an adaptive feature.so keep booting it and the ecu should change, My car has a sports exhaust .... Maybe that helps? Am going to fit a K&N kit ....but only for fun...she goes well as she is. The best mod is the 4.1:1 competition back axle ratios......makes the car feel a lot more responsive.
