... and you'll pay Lexus prices for that level of serivce and quality. Seriously I'd love an IS300, but they are just too mcuh $$$
As far as your car ... you need to make whoever installed your NOS pay for the car plain and simple. Unless it was your fault somehow . . .

Ive gone to the lexus dealer with friends going to get their car worked on, they give them no problems no hassels or nothing, even gave them a new loaner car. i loved my svt, it was my dream car before i got it... but then i had it, and dont get my wrong i still love it i would take it back if i could, but theres just way too many problems with those cars, the money ive invested in fixing the car i could of paid it off by now.
Hey dude, have you ever heard of punctuation? Anyway, go ahead and buy a BMW, Lexus, Mercedes, or whatever it is you think you want at the time. Just remember that when it breaks, no one on here is gonna give a crap.

I would def. look into suing the "professionals" that did that install. Also, you said you owed 8500? So that would mean you have a lien on your car and no bank would ever lend you money if you didn't have full coverage, and being in the insurance business myself, I'd like to think I know what i'm talking about. Did you borrow the money from your parents? And for everyone that doesn't have comp and coll. on your car, go put it on because in the long run it is worth every penny.
sorry, i forgot, never take your car to a ford dealership. they all suck. find a machanic around you that you can trust. or find someone on here to help. ford dealerships are the most worthless places in the world. i made that mistake with my explorer, but never again. still love fords though, just not the people that work for them.

Wow. Sorry to go off topic here but WTF? I dispise insurance companies becuase all they are is a scam.
Tell me how it is worth every penny of the $2500/year insurance companies want to cover my car, when my car is only WORTH $2500 (at best)? So if I own my car for 2 years, I've paid for it two times over in insurance bills and what do I have to show for it? Nothing. Dont' get me started if I paid that kind of insurance bill for "the long run"
RAWR.
/rant off
Anyway, on topic, sue those installers man. Thats crap.

I'm sorry you misunderstood me. And insurance may seem like a rip off you to and i understand that. But having a car that is worth 2500 compared to a car that is worth 8500 is a huge difference. I should have stated for everyone that has a car that is ACTUALLY WORTH SOMETHING, get comp and coll. if your car is worth nothing like your car is then i would put basic on it. if you did have full coverage on a car that is worth 2500, then it is not the insurance company that is ripping you off, it is yourself.

well its been said but I would look into a lawyer to sue whoever installed the system...unless it was a used system then they can get out of being liable. Next...ya don't really sound like the most intelligent person on the planet..owing that much and rolling PLPD....what a TOOL. I feel sorry.....for the car that some dork owned it and burt her down. If you do not know enough about a N2O system to install it yourself...then you should probably not have one installed....
Stazi..insert the azzclown award for me too...
People suck.
Rev it till it MELTS.....
