Boost gauges are nice. As long as it's not coupled with a mileage gauge

boost guage is easy to install. I installed mine myself. and will they not hold the car if you put a $500 deposit on it?

I have commitment issues so i didnt put a down payment on it yet. I found a dealership for 35 bucks cheaper but the salesman I had at this dealership was very nice, but now i just read about the door lock issue where you can hit the car above the front doors lock and it will make it easier to break into and/or unlock the car. So i need to see if these new 08's had the reinforced bar put in to try and prevent that. Also there is a 2008.5 special edition MS3 coming out in March, that has some upgraded cosmetics and i want to know if they have heated seats. I want heated seats so bad

I thought the reinforced plate issue was solved? At the very least I'm sure they upgraded the affected models at no charge upon request...

yeah im going to ask a couple dealers tomorrow about the lock and the 2008.5 model...

I want heated seats so bad I thought you were complaining about being on a budget?? LMAOand heated seats are easy. They do not come on the 08 STI, and neither does bluetooth. However, my buddy's shop will get both installed for a good price done right. I installed the leather interior and the heated seat elements on my 03 Vibe GT. It wasn't hard, just took me long because I didn't really know what I was doing.

I was able to find a SS for 19k new loaded, but seriously im going to need traction control for the crazy winters in duluth. the MS3 has dsc/tc which will help a ton plus snow tires. My dad actually wants me to get the MS3 bad. GT model though, as HID's are kick (removed). Resale on the MS3 will be better too, that and i dont think i can live with a coupe. I do lots of outdoor things that require a hatch and the vibe rules for that, it just needs to be 4x faster hahah 19k vs 23k loan is like only 50-80 more a month, it just means i cant go to the bar as much

and the MS3 > CSS

^ X 100

^^ x 101^2Im getting the MS3 just need to make sure I can pay the tax/title/license and not have to eat ramen until the next paycheck hahah
