Took it for a ride this morning on the expressway. Then an amg coupe decided it wanted to play with me.

Drove her to work as usual, but near lunch time I go back out to put something away and I see/hear a Porsche Cayman warming up a few spots away. Not a very powerful or confident sound from the Cayman...I was surprised. In fact, if I didn't look but just listened I would think I was hearing a 4 cylinder sedan. Kinda shocking I think.

When I bought my car a few days ago, I was looking at the nismo juke...it grabbed my attention a lot. My gf almost fell in love with it.

Agree. I am not a fan of loud cars, especially when they are slow...

I purchased 24 quarts of Redline 5W 30 at cost today. I am thinking about getting a few more while I can.

Reminds me, I have to do an oil change in the next 3k miles. I don't track and the motor is stock for now. There are about 20 effing thousand threads about engine oil here. I think I'll do mobile 1 with the mobile performance filter.

Took it out for a drive this afternoon. First time my dad has ridden in it.

Last weekend I installed my radar detector mute button into a dummy switch; today I finished routing the wire through the wire cover to come out behind the mirror & ordered a Blendmount. Also made an appointment to have the windows tinted on Good Friday (only have to take off half a day of work).
