Damn. You are seriously going to town on this car.

Now that you have had it for a while is there anything that you do not care for? I have only been for a ride in one since they reintroduced these cars.

the AFM Air Fuel Management programming. was watching my vacuum gauge today. when it went into 4 cylinder mode, vacuum dropped. stayed around 8". when it went into 8 cylinder went to at least 15". fuel economy was no different.
