Joel, my new plan is to take your gunmetals, mount my Kumhos to them, and sell my car with those. Then I'll buy a summer tire, which I'll order when I get home, for my 18". If this gets done before those tires arrive, I'll just throw your steelies on when I take the car. Text me if that works for you...

Not to mention no dealer will give you great condition rates. Only time that will happen is if it's a garage queen and never gets driven

Damn this guy wants to see the car already! Going at 10 to show him, gotta haul ass to clean it cause it's a filthy ass mess inside. Just found the stuff I signed when I bought it, I have GM Total Plus warranty till Oct 17, 2012. Didn't really need to sell it now... but oh well. Bring on the boost.

I don't agree with you Jordan;
I understand that Adrian feels bothered by this, but when the real culprit is found, this will have been a steal of a deal... Like I said earlier, most 2.4L cars are still listed for around 10k w/o any mods... and Adrian's is a REALLY nice looking car, with tasteful mods done to it.
For all we know your car had a bunch of unsolved issues before it was stolen - and maybe over the course of it getting repaired, the glitches were fixed...
99% of techs rely upon on board diagnostics, and do not take it any further - which is evident by Adrian bringing that car in for a service engine code, then only moments after picking it up, another (or hte same) code pops up;
that tells me the REAL problem(s) were never fully traced.
The difference between a run of the mill tech, and a good one, is their ability to properly diagnose, and repair issues...
Something that admittedly, is a weak spot for me.
