Wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be. Was able to drive a friend's R32 GTR. Never used the turn signals though. Only drove it up and down a street to row through the gears.

I do, yes. Quite like it, it's like a wide angle rear view mirror. Takes a bit to get used to as it's a bit like the side mirrors where objects are closer than they appear.

thanks! Just purchased one and saw your response in one of the older threads. Wanted to see if you still liked it.

It's a bit of a bugger to tighten but once it is you should be all set.

We're all getting used to the rear view being wider than we're used to.

Looks like the Mustang is going to Carvana. Finally got all the title ish taken care of.

Carmax offered me 27k a little while ago, I took it there Monday night to sell, but the offer expired and they reappraised and dropped it to 24,500. I asked why, they said the hood needed paint. I dug deeper and found out they were talking about the airbrush on the scoop I added. I let them know the scoop is removable and they wouldn't have to paint or sell it with it on. Guy went back to see if that changed the offer. No dice. Car is still 24,500 even if the hood is good. I decided not to sell that night.

The dealership we bought the jeep from offered 27,500 today. Told them they were still off of what Carvana is offering--29k. They're going to get back to me and see if they can come up.

I don't want to sell the Mustang, got a lot of time into that car, but I made out ok--Bought for 48 (3k under MSRP out the door). Owned it for 6 years, didn't put a ton of miles on it at 43k, and got 29k back in the end. So not so bad. And did it all with 0% financing.
