History
I drove the EX, after driving it for a year I was getting a serious itch to start upgrading the performance, and I knew that the 2.4 wasn't the platform to start with. So I upgraded to the SX and changed the color from titanium to black, and now metallic blue. I feel sorry for the 2.4 peeps, they are missing out, the SX is big boy pants.

Future upgrades: Probably upgraded
Sound. All mods to date have been under the hood or cosmetic, haven't started on the inside yet and probably won't for a while. My ole lady's gettin aggro over the $8k i have spent to date.

Wheel and Tire
Falken RT-6 Wheels 20x8.5 (matte black wraped)
Falken FK452 Tires 245/35/ZR20
Future upgrades: KSport Big Brake and Caliper Kit. I wouldn't mind if Brembo decided to develop theirs, Geneis gets them but we don't. I have the cheap Brembo covers and the MGP covers. I took them off after a week because they looked to fake. I'll just have to settle for caliper paint for now.
