zone 6 inch lift with 5 inch rear lift coils and fox performance series 2.0 struts up front to level out the lift. cv angle isn't affected by having "additional" 2 inches of lift or leveling up front. it basically sits the same as having leveling strut up front with no lift kit.

I was gonna go 35" but with 6 inch lift, 35" looked small

Finally got a roller Apparently shooting this car was especially difficult because the angel eyes over expose the black car.

Anyone got any tips on shooting a darker coloured car?

shoot it when it's brighter to offset the angel eyes.
They call it "golden hour" for a reason

How are you liking it? We'll likely be replacing our 1st gen Matrix with one in a few years time.

Got together with a couple buddys with S54s this evening. Both Carbon Black cars are currently for sale on Craigslist and I can vouch for their great condition

Well I have been driving it for a week now and I honestly like it a lot more than the Matrix.

First off, we got the CVT version. When we drove off the lot, I noticed how quiet it was from the engine and the noise from outside. As for interior; what I like the most is that everything is close by. No more extending myself like Elastic Man to grab something out of the glove box. The AC on full blast: especially on a hot day like yesterday. The back up camera is great for parallel parking, no more guessing where my rear is anymore. Also, it comes with a button which folds your side mirrors in! Comes with heated front seats, tried it out today and boy does it warm up quick. Talking about seats, it hugs your body when you are cornering. No more holding onto the steering wheel for dear life when cornering. I like how the lower ride height compared to the 2nd gen Matrix. Exterior wise, it just looks cool.

The only con I have for it is the cargo space (with the seats folded down)and hatch opening. Not as big as the 1st and 2nd gen Matrix.

Overall: the extra 5hp Toyota gave to the iM, I can feel it the powwaaa LOL. Now there are 3 Toyota iM in my neighborhood.
Spoiler!

The garage is a mess, I've already tried to clean it up. I have no idea how my garage became a Honda museum...

Guess which car is the fastest? Probably the civic.

That Amuse R1 front bumper is how the S2000 should've looked like coming straight from the factory. Very nice.
