jwill911, first off I love the color combo. Is that a Dansk exhaust? Looks identical to the one on my car. Love the sound.

I have a Dansk system on my car. It sets off car alarms and confuses the musclecar crowd. It's rad. :D

I love Chiffon White. I call it "Instagram White," since it looks like that warm, washed-out white you get when you run a picture of a white Porsche through Instagram filters.
