There isn't enough power to the rear lights, it needs a separate line. I was curious if anyone had attempted to route anything from the trunk to the fuse box. Perhaps for a subwoofer or the like.

If you're still looking at this, check all the intakes and filters. Mine dropped by 30% because I had a clogged air intake. A bad fuel filter will do the same.

The styling. The seats. The sense of isolation from the outside. The highway power. The lack of gear changes and abrupt engine noises.
It's a smooth, classy car with a lot of power. I like that.
