There should be no difference.

I have been eyeing these up all night. I saw that on Koni's site they dont list the 09, which I also have. Im not too worried though, should be fine. I really wish someone would do a group buy on these to save me a few bucks cause I know Im gonna pop on these.

I just motored on over to the gym, had a nice drive on the empty streets.

Gym is empty too, I guess resolutions are being broken now

Drove by another 370 on my way home from work today. Was looking at it thinking that's a nice looking car, hey I'm sitting in one too! Sitting in it and mostly seeing it from the inside usually, you forget sometimes, lol. Every time I wash it, though, I want to take pics then realize this is how it looks every time.

My CarbonSignal matte finish carbon fiber interior pieces arrived! It will be the weekend before they get installed, but they look sweet!

Pictures at some point.

It was 53*F on the way home vs 30*F this morning.

I had a rare wide open road home, most of the way. When a pull out came up, the truck ahead of me, used it. A few seconds later I got to pass a Prius who flipped me off. It felt so good, making up for any and all transgressions of the day. I hope he gets a chance to do it everyday.

Still no rain either. I plan to take advantage with a night drive tonight as well. The temp is falling so I'd better do it soon.

Can I do anything to make this situation better? i.e. slaloming to heat up the tires or is it just like yesterday slow down, turn harder where the sun is beating down on the black top, and be ready for the unexpected.

Thanks

i just keep the psi on the higher side around 37.5psi and drive normally. doing slaloms too quickly can put you in a spin if you go too fast.

Yeah, I am back. I drove the 370 today for the first time in a week and a half -- just like riding a bike. I also put a few shots up in the DSLR thread.
