I love that ------- car. The way it sits from the factory, its perfect. Do they come with a standard transmission?

Nope, just the 7-speed sequential available. You should hear it run through the gears though, it's nuts.

I saw one the other day in oshawa, it was a silver one but it still had all the protective film on the front bumper, and sounded ungodly good

This car is crazy, you dont need that in Manual because the automatic can shift 10X faster than you.lol

Only Edmunds TV can make a car that new and hot seem boring.

I was driving behind one yesterday afternoon. This one was black and holy ---- its hard to drive with a boner. Its like trying to pee with one.

They look way better in person, but Im with Smartass driving behind it the exhaust tips bugged me.
