2) Studio RSR Cage
3) 6 Point Harness

5. Whats is your favorite part of the car?
Right now I'd say my favorite part of the car would be the coilovers. This has been one of the best upgrades I've done so far since I track relatively frequently . Night and day difference in handling and ride quality on the street and the track.
6. Any pros and cons you wanna share with owning the car?
There are 0 cons for this car in my opinion. You could say the crankhub is a con for the car, but unless you're tuned, it is very unlikely to have crankhub failure. Some also say the exhaust note is awful but for me, it is very unique.
If anything this car has been nothing but good. Lots of power from the factory, handling characteristics are very predictable and easy to reel in if you push it too much, and extremely reliable.
