Bog-standard 4-door EX-trim sedan, F22A4 engine and 5-speed transmission. Slightly wider than stock tires, 313,200 miles (as of 3/2010).
Getting better than factory mileage despite my nightly climb to my home at 4,675 feet ASL!

Current Mods:
Higher PSI econo-tires (51 psi) pumped up to sidewall max. Manual power antenna override. Vacuum gauge (jury rigged.)

In order:
1. Vacuum gauge - done 12/4/2008!
2. Temperature gauge (for grille block)
3. Grille block
4. MPGuino - purchased but not assembled
5. Kill-switch for my long downhill in the morning.
6. Clutch switch bypass
Vehicle retired on 3/7/2012--sold on Craigslist. Left the vacuum gauge in the car; maybe the new owner will use it!
