Just returned from the Texas 8-fest in my new 8. It was a nice weekend with lots of driving in the Texas hill country. Out of 13 cars, 5 were Laguna Green, including mine. I noticed that none of the green cars were exactly alike. Mine has green piping on a two tone grey leather interior and walnut trim on the door panels, including the door pull, that no one else had. Wonder if that was a special order on my car.
Interesting bit: we met at a Dodge dealership that had a dyno. Most owners put their cars on to check out hp and torque. Not an appreciable difference in the numbers even though several had chips and mods in exhausts and manifolds, etc... Makes me wonder if it's worth the expense.
Lost a piece of my front grill on the trip, so it's time to shop for a replacement. I'm spending the rest of the long weekend putting a few more coats of Zaino wax on the car. It's amazing stuff. With a good claying and a little sweat, the finish is like glass.
I came away from the event wanting to put new wheels and tires on my car. The bigger, fatter combos look great. Any advice on wheel and tire sizes is welcome.
Cheers
