ouch. no temp reading? Is there a solution for this? or is there a dash light that alerts the driver if the engine is cold (or hot)? I've never driven with runflats, but have heard negativity from more than one person. What's wrong with them?

Other than that, you'll love the car!

How's the stereo anyhow? And do you know the year when they downgraded the stereo? I have to say, sound quality is pretty important to me.

I have a son your age at CMR. Assume you know great Canadian rally driver who lives in SJsR also.

That's exactly what I want to get, and I emphasize on purchasing a car from an owner and not a post-leased vehicle for obvious reasons. The sport package is a must as well as the sunroof. But to be honest, I don't know any rally drivers from St-Jean-sur-Richelieu, apart from my olf Volks mechanic, Laflamme.
Thanks alot guys!
