Goodness me what a gem of a car. Would have nabbed this if I didn't just grab the car in VA.

I gotta ask-

When you added the M suspension bits, minus the B12 kit-- what did it all feel like? I've read after installing everything, to get a proper alignment from a professional shop.

What else are you parking right now?

Thanks for the kind words! Everything tightened up in general, steering feel felt slightly heavier and more communicative. The main things are that higher speed cornering improved and the rear end feeling disconnected on bumps mid corner disappeared. It's how the car should have came.

I just backed out of buying a M2 because my wife says she wants to be able to drive the car (can't drive manual). So now we're looking at an Audi TTRS.

Right? The car has been good, glad the new spark plugs fixed all the misfiring. Noticing just about everything but the oil is original on this car, down to the cabin air filter-- not a bad thing, could be worse.
