Until a drunk driver did this:

I say "drunk" rather loosely because he barely squeaked by coming in just shy of the .08 limit

ETA: I removed the pin stripes right after I took the first photo because when I went to look at the car, it didn't have them and the dealership added them as part of their "dealer prep package".

Dude that sucks! My Mustang was marked for doom...
1st time: I was at a taco bell drive through and a dude in a huge dually must have gotten really mad at the person on the speaker, slammed his truck in reverse and finally stopped on my windshield... smashed the front flat broke Evertything!

2nd time: I had just got my car back for not even a week and I was pulling into my old apt complex and a drunk idiot driving an explorer came around the entrance doing something like 50 mph and he finally stopped on the roof of my car... NO INSURANCE!

3rd time: The paint had not even dried 24 hours when I got it out of the shop and was driving through a 2 way stop just to look to my left to see a 4 DR chevys white hood will grillguard smash right into my drivers side door pushing me all the way to the passenger side of my car, spun me around 3x and hit the curb so hard it smashed the spokes of my factory 5 stars... He ran a damn stop sign at 60 and guess what... NO INSURANCE!

After that the day it came out of the body shop I went straight to the dealer and bought my truck. They never totalled that car and should have DONT EVER GET HARTFORD CAR INSURANCE! Under the carpet, my floorpan looked like frankensteins scars!

I bought that car brand new and had it only 2 years, not to mention I had the tranny serviced for fluid change, and they stripped out the drainplug and locked up my tranny and had to replace that too.

All I can say is "thank god for uninsured motorist protection!"
SEE WHY I GOT THE TRUCK?

I'm gonna take a trip to Frys tomorrow night I think to listen to some Polk audio speakers...

Hey, gunz4me, did those tweeter a-pillars come with your ride? I want some of those, lol.

Anyways, thank you guys for the responses once again, I think this is the best forum I've ventured to in my years of nettin' it up.

dont want to sound rude but in sound rooms they will almost never sound the same in your car. the acoustics are built totally different and the supply that powers the amps could be running all amps at the same time creating power drop... you have other things to consider like contour, airspace, etc wattage, signal clarity and much much more... dont ever let your final judgement come from a sound room... I suggest finding some consumer reviews before buying.

Also, we share the same taste in music and you wouldnt be disappointed by the type s... for the money that is...
