The one I saw was bright red.
No engine upgrades le... Just always maintain it at good condition. Put Motor Up every 6 months (since car is old already) and flush engine with prep up once a year or so.Still got a bit "kick" if I off the air con and put V power. For an 8 year old car... I still like the "kick" it gives la,wat to expect. Performance wise nothing much really. But I did change to a pair of B8 turbo bucket seats(nice) and momo steering. Changed the seats coz the old wan got "old smell".
I'm still undecided wether or not to change the stock exhaust system.I scared too noisy.

Can you review again wat you did with your car?
Did you do anything to your air filter system? What spark plugs you using? It's sad we can't change to those aftermarket "Bright Bulbs"... like Osram,Raybrig...etc. Our whole headlight bulb is one big square casing.
