WOW, those are not white walls. I had snow stick to sides of wheels from plowing the parking lot.

Sent from a mobile, I think.

I had to of course get the shot in front of the dealership tonight. :)

Nice composition.
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Pics look AWESOME.  Glad the SHO did great in the snow.  Just bummed you got more snow they we did up here in Wmspt.  Been wanting to get my other toy out.  The dealer pic, I love it.

your SHO looks great. I'd lower but I'm afraid of the ground clearance, and alignment / tire wearing issues. My G35x was lowered on H&R springs and it finally got old. Sold it after I bought my SHO in June.
2013 PP SHO LMS 93V10 tune, 170* T stat, 3bar, K&N drop in, plugs re-gapped, 4in exhaust tips.
UPDATE - 130K miles =blown engine. Unleashed tune and EBPP upgrade turbo billet wheels / Turbo Smart WGA's on a bran new long block. Let's get this SHO on the road !

2013 Fusion Titanium 2.0 EB daily driver ;) - LMS 93 tune and CPE intercooler

It's not as bad as I expected; I've scraped a few times and it was because the entry or exit was VERY steep and I had no choice.

I did smack my mid pipe on a huge speedbump; that was quite funny.

Honestly; with the little bit of camber I have and the lowering kit--she rides the way I want her to. It feels VERY stable in the corners. I ended up not aligning it like bpd did (factory specs) and instead put a bit camber for cornering which I feel to an extent. I guess the best way I can express it is to take a sharp corner (safely) at a high speed and feel the body roll through it. Then when you do H&R's with a bit camber and you do the same corner at the same speed you will feel how stable the car is and body roll is less.

I agree--the photos came out completely sick. I love it! The car is mean as hell and luxurious as all get out. I just wish it had a full-time AWD and not the split thing it does.
