FE4 is RPO code for heavy duty suspension. Stiffer springs, shocks, sway bars, etc...makes it handle better but sacrifices some of the cushy ride.

All I can say Lioness,go to the dealer and see if by chance he has a 6m..there is a good possibility of that,If you drive one,its a no brainer..
I do get what you're saying, and no driving stick isn't a big deal. I just don't think it's the better option for me. I'll never use all the horses, so losing 20 is no biggie. But you're correct that I should get behind the wheel and compare the two.

As for changing on code 3800.. I was thinking about changing the delivery location, but my dealer said it might be hard to do because I went code 3400 on 12/24 (haven't updated my sig).

Wow.. I think I understood that! So I'm assuming for my daily driver needs, the FE4 wouldn't be the preferred choice... correct?

If your tires tend to scream alot when you drive, the FE4 is for you.

If you just want to get from point a to b while looking hot, FE2 is fine.

Auto vs. manual is like sex....... I better not go there tho LOL

1. Don't have tires yet to know if they scream or not

2. I'll look hot no matter how I get from point A to point B. It's just a matter of how much time someone has to appreciate all that hotness before they see my dust

3. Good call.

One problemo Boemano... I'm dealing out of state! Long haul for a test drive! Last time I tried, local dealers barely let people near the car, test drives needed CIA clearance, DNA testing, and the promise of first born child.
