The trunk rattle holy hell. Also taking off in it. I literally hate having to come to a complete stop. I have driven standards for a better part of 11 years. Taking off is buck buck spin.

The 4x100 has been a PITA... I got bad luck? Iunno? Apparently not easy tl find here in canadia.. Every junker yard i go to or call every so often only has the 5 lug stockers, the odd few aftermarkets ive come across are stupid expensive, and grtting them shipped is always madd $$. Its been bothering me for quite some time.

Maybe it's just me, but I have no problem doing this. Just clutch in when you have to and rev match it back in when you start to move a bit faster.

Who still has sex in there car? You must be a teenager or in your early 20s I lost my virginity in the hatch of my old mustang gt. This is how you do it, full bed standard.

no I'll usually just toss it in neutral roll rEALLY slow to where I'd normally stop and at 5km/hr the RPM's meet first gear perfectly at idle rpms, I just toss it into first and creep along, no bogging or anything. I'll only ever rev match first if I'm below 10km/hr.

well ok I suppose I sounded a bit silly over launching frustrations.. my biggest issue is backing up in this car now THATS *buck buck squeak and other awful sounds*

OK, it does take some finess i'll admit, but once i got the hang of my car i've never had an issue stopping, besides when my tune or whatever was off and the rpms would bounce otherwise, all good

and as for creeping in 1st gear... just be super light and delicate on the gas lol

I have had mustangs with 500+ hp 4.10 gears which is similar to the 4.05, and a Tremec TKO, and never had issues with it bucking at low speeds. My car just does not like 1st gear unless it is WOT, which I rarely do.

1st gear is the best on a stock ss/sc because it hooks up and GOES

And from an aesthetic standpoint, the surface of the paint is terrible. I know orange peel exists on any factory car, but mine is just bad.

(Sorry cobalt)
you been talking about sound deadening for years, nut up and do it sucka!

Biggest pet peeve is the shitty steering columns that rattle.
Second pet peeve, limited tuning support for our cars.
Third, a longer first gear would've been nice for dd mode
Fourth, all ss's came with god awful wings.
