Any other XRS owners around?

I just joined the forum and wanted to say hi to you all, and see if there are any other XRS owners around here. So, are there? What do you think of your 2ZZ-GE corolla?

I'll tell you what I like about mine. I like the fact that I can get 34 mpg when I take it easy on my car, but when I need to pass someone (or have fun) I can rev it to 8400rpms and scream by. I also love the look on some Honda owner's face when he tries to pass me in his turbo civic and he can't for the life of him gain on me. I also like the fact that everyone seems to think that if it is a corolla it has to be slow.......sleeper cars are fun.

Next month I'm getting the rest of the cash from my lawsuit a few years ago, here is what I'm gonna do....

1. Injen Short Ram Intake
2. Greddy Catback exaust, or a Magnaflow if it is out by then
3. Tien S-Tech springs (2.4" drop)
4. New shocks of some kind to handle the drop
5. Campber kit
6. Window tint

That should free the motor up pretty well, and make it look a bit less like a 4x4 (it sits like 6" off the ground now), while still keeping it clean. What do you all think?

don't let the AE-spec owners bother you, they suffer from performance envy. (and I'm a previous 4AGE owner before you get all high and mighty boys)
