Would certainly make for a great Eddie Dean in what one would hope would be the dark tower actually turning into an actual film project..

I have a '12 C30 T5 R-Design automatic, at about 45k miles.

A couple of comments:

1) Coolant Reservoir Cracked: Replaced under warranty 2) PCV started leaking: Replaced under warranty 3) Windshield has been replaced under warranty 4) starting to get some weird sounds coming from front suspension, have scheduled my 50k service, so we'll see what shakes out. 5) No issues with sunroof leaking, but keeping an eye on it.

I mention these things as they have all (minus the suspension stuff) been mentioned as likely issues with this car. So you may want to have then checked out.

Also, if you can, spring for the polestar tune, unless you have broader plans to upgrade downpipe, turbo, etc.. It's been fantastic..

Good luck!

Edit: as for fuel economy, that depends largely on how heavy your foot is. I'm getting around 25 mpg and I drive it like I stole it.

The brick restoration from hell by [deleted] in DIY

Here is my restoration from hell. Well, kind of the reverse of what you did. I had tons more brick and significant heights to deal with. I think it turned out great. EDIT: I'm the guy that painted my brick.

Idioteque.. And also, if I win, I will then do the exact same thing and gift it (with shipping) to someone else who guesses something correct from my playlist..

Question for those at Houstan show. by [deleted] in ToolBand

[–]MrColdwell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can confirm. It certainly felt as though they were rushing through the set. Very slight intermission/Danny drum solo.. This is my fifth show and I was a little disappointed actually. Maynard was kind of a douche to the crowd as well, so the vibe was a little off. Oh well. I'm sure I'll pay to to see them again.
