some people don't understand the concept that even though you may save 20 cents a gallon on gas, you are getting worse gas mileage and potentially damaging your engine, and in the long run you don't really save any money at all.
$5k sounds like a good price if the car is in good condition. I paid $6200 for mine a year and a half ago with 68k miles and bone stock.

You say "I don't get that extra kick at 3500 rpms", we say "your IMRC box is bad, or your secondaries are sticking".. Not something your everyday mechanic will pinpoint for you without checking out the car for a while. Good luck, and I'd say $5k is a pretty good deal. What catback and cold air are on the car?

P.S. The interior is actually midnight blue, which is commonly mistaken for black.

The cat back is from true bendz I believe and Im not sure what kind of cold air kit intake it is. All I could tell was that it had a K&N on it and a duct going up from inside the fender to it.
