keep in mind the audio upgrade in the ssv is only the speakers. I want a sunroof as well and when you consider the cost, a redline starts to come into the picture ;)
Has anyone driven a redline vs a ss-v, interested in the suspension difference, especially the ride during cruising on highways. Still waiting for my local dealer to have both in stock to test drive.
That's dirt cheap. The Audi Bose option was $8200.00 :eek:Quote:

Not as good as a aftermarket if course but impressive for stock.Quote:

IS the SV6 proximity key to?
Calais over the sv6 IMO. No passive entry in sv6/ssQuote:

Not really a judgement on build quality as I highly doubt it left the factory like that, considering the number of eyes that pass over it before it leaves. More likely it was knocked out in transit to the dealer (or someone tried to pinch it and bailed out) and has just been badly jammed back in.Quote:

Lets hope that the current Mark isn't pre-occupied with other import matters to still remember quality sells it's self.
As soon as I heard they'd asked staff to take a pay cut I immediately wondered if QC would suffer, but I do agree with XLR8
Yeah, I'd say it got pulled out and whoever put it back got the wires caught.
Yeah, this is on my mind. We're likely to order a Cruze in the next month or so. It would probably be built right in the middle of these heated discussions around wages. Should I be worried?Quote:

The windscreen was removed and reinstalled and both guards were filed back and repainted. So yes it can happen.
