So I'm getting an FM spec tomorrow, figure its a good deal because im changing the tires anyway... I really dont care about audio controls on steering wheel, or sunroof, or cruise control, or butt rest tilt on the seats (lol that is such a dumb feature anyway)....

any reason else I shouldnt get the spec? alot of people seem to hate it, lol

thanks

 

mods: oh yea, this is an opinion on the spec thread, not an announcement thread only, so please dont lock.. thanks

 

You can't use most a/m parts on it, as the header/MAF sensor are different... that means intakes/turbos/and the SC are no go at this point without modifications...

I'm sure in time that will change... but sucks to have a spec until then.

 

It's not a dumb feature when you're on a long drive and your back starts to hurt. Adjust the seat and you're comfortable again.

 

@ wedrive: yea, there are no more 06's where i live anyway, so whatever, ill just wait to get my turbo (DEZOD PLEASE MAKE A KIT)

@MJVsTC: my current car doesnt have that feature and im still comfortable, lol

 

Yeah, if your patient... it's all good... good base to play off of. parts will come.

 

post pics!

 

right now it may seem that its better to own a 05/06, but later on 07+ will be the majority and then 05/06's will be the minority! i hope there will be parts developing for 05/06's though.

 

i like my 05'

 

At first I thought I could have gone without the sunroof, but now that I have it, I have it open all the time. Plus I think with the sunroof open all the way it makes the tC look orgasmic. Just IMHO but congrats on your purchase, and hopefully you make something nice out of the "blank canvas" or whatever they call it.

 

^ Orgasmic?

 

that or a facsimile thereof.

 

I'm not sure what a facsimile is, but I guess Orgasmic isn't a common adjective worldwide? I'll take note of that.

 

You'll learn about that when you're older

 

Relating to, characteristic of, or tending to produce an orgasm


any further explanations, well, you'll have to wait until you're old enough.

 

The orgasm now thats teh myth!
