santa brought me a new car.
well santa stuffed this down the chimney for me and left the payment. Not sure on what I want to do to it. I love it because of the room. It way bigger then the caddy. Plus to many people have escalade's. I seen 40 in one day. kids driving them and such. I don't see to many of these rolling around. Not sure if I want to bang it out or keep it simple. The caddy is staying in the fam so I will have one bangger. Not to sure on the sounds but the pioneer navi system is going in this weekend as long as a full clifford alarm and gps tracking. I don't know why but the factory sounds sounds good but lacks the real bass even thou it has a fatory sub. What would you guys do. I do know that I don't want to fill the car up with alot of amps. hell I not sure. lol

Nice! I would just add one 12"sub, nothing fancy. But then again you can always go with three 10's. Just throwing out some possibilities.

Re: (chunty *** kevin)
My old manager has one of those and had 3 12" titanium eclipses before he swapped out for 3 12" bostons. I'll get some pics up shortly

After a week, I been driving the ole beater da around. gas Kinda sucks azz. kinda my azz after thinking about it 15.5 miles to the gallon. Dam this thing only takes 91. Its like my itr. I needed it to pull my quads and to step my game up. I can't stay 30 in a teg with out having a back up. Its better then the caddy for real and has more room. I wish santa would of left some extra free gas cards.

man I would really appreciate the pics, None of any friends other shops have done one either. I googled and could not find anything. I not going to copy anyone either. Did he go behing the rear seat? I was looking at the jl audio sealth unit(kick me in my butt) with the one 12. But feel that I would out grow it in days. I am still stuck with the ideal of fiberglassing a ported enclousure in the factory location. There is so much room behind the pannel. Two tens look real possiable in a ported unit or sealed if I fit it right. Might stick with the 8's

lol, just 7, lol. That would be really cool. But I want this car to attract the older crowd to show my work. The younger des would of did that quick. Older people (rich) don't really go for the subs thing like that and would make me look like a kid shop. I landed a account with the dealership that I bought it from to do all there aftermarket alarms and aftermarket navi systems. So this could be my demo car as well. I going for all out sound quality. The average person who buys one of these new is 28 and up. And have families. Or straight ballers with cash and want to do the 26 inch rims and be heard around the block. I got them. Time for a new market. oyea it would be 7 mtx 9500 by the way, mtx baby I just earned my pay check

To be honest that is not horrible I think the NSX get maybe 16 mpg if I am lucky. The Tacoma which is only a 6 cylinder gets 19 mpg. Really crappy for a 6 IMO. I never understood why the big v8's required premium but offered such little hp for displacement. My boat has a volvo v8 requires premium and only puts out 220hp WTF!
I have been looking at the new range rovers lately might pick one up soon hopefully. Either that or an H1. Congrats on the new purchase.
I grew out of the loud stereo thing when I was 25 I think. I'm happy with upgraded mids and tweets, decent amp, and one sub. Although I do still like looking at really nice setups, equipment and installs.

Re: (nsxxtreme)
He wanted this stealth when he wanted and visible when he wanted to show it off, all while keeping it looking factory quality.
Sandblasted the lincoln logo on the front side.
To match the factory burlwood on the box
Backside. Wanted to keep it looking clean so just embossed the lincoln logo, got the factory badges and did some burlwood (veneer iirc)

The eclipses need more air space to sound best, and we stopped being an eclipse dealer so he wanted to carry a product that we stock

First see sig, second, a huge percentage of rockford is 1ohm stable.
Power isn't everything.
