Hello all. Picked up this 2019 off a buddy. He takes good care of his cars and the timing of the sale worked out for us! 75k miles for $11,000
Performance:
Unknown if it had the engine mounts done. . On stage 1 Mountune, konig wheels. Bought at a daily so I'm happy with keeping it this way. Do not need much more in this space.
Cosmetic mod:
wing risers, paint protection, roof rack (non of us have keys for it, but may throw a small canoe on there lol)
Notes:
First stick shift I've owned, but not the first time driving one. Been super fun, had to spend some time in a parking lot relearning. Torque between 2k-5k is F U N. Would like to further the "OEM plus"-type build. Have not had blend door problems, but occasionally hear a buzzing when idling with the HVAC on (temperature sensor for HVAC?) Any advice on clutch life expectancy?
Future Mods:
-This thing gets dirty so quickly. I end up with dirt all over the hatch, bumper, and rear diffuser. I want some rally flaps, I know rally armor is preferred here. Wish there was no brand/ST branded ones that were decent quality. Thinking black or red, thoughts?
-Want an under-seat or spare tire sub, sound system is okay at higher levels once you turn the treble down. Still lacks low end I'm used to in my truck and other sound systems. Recommendations? Don't need thumpy, just like to feel bass - I play jazz, rock/punk/metal, and DnB
- 2019 removing the front ambient lighting kinda stinks, has anyone wired an led into the later models? Would be kind of cool/fun to add.
- interested in OEM looking, but LED lighting.
