After about a month, the feeling will go away and you'll end up spending $$ in modding your car to make it go faster. Trust me, after 2 scoobies, you thought that I've learnt.

Cool

I'm into week three of Scooby ownership - opted for a few mods from new (PPP, set of anthracite alloys, morettes, quickshift).

Well pleased doesn't cover it (particularly as I've already done 1200 miles so I'm easing up the revs....) but already thinking about air filters (replacement panel rather than an induction kit) and whether or not a de-cat of some sort would invalidate my warranty

Plus, how about a set of lexus style rear lights (there's a nive WR Blue MY01 near me with them and it looks great) plus a new rear wing.... the list goes on
