Figured I'd make a little mini build thread as I go to track my mods...I'll start with the background info: I had a 2012 Tacoma TRD Sport and drive 75-100 miles/day and am looking to buy a house with my wife and newborn, so the truck had to go and I needed a car that I would own outright and get good mileage...I was looking at Legacy GT's (don't care too much for boxer engines but was interested in a turbo), TL's and V6 6spd Accords. I couldn't find any that I was happy with in that price range when I came upon my I4 5MT and after the test drive I was very please with how much lighter on its feet it felt than a V6 6MT or any of the others, the car was CLEAN and the price was right.
