dumped, tinted, nice rims will fix a lot of that ugly factor I reckon and the higher compression engine and low mount twinscroll set up is appealing in some ways

just give it awhile and the mods will come trust me

Keen for an XT.

You'll get used to the looks, same as everyone got used to the GRB's & getting slowly used to the new Liberty.

I would have one of these for my work car but the no manual is the killer for me.

I will be interested to know how much actual power you lose with the CVT over the manual ?
