almost sleepable, but not at high speeds. got my AE to 100+ on 15S ---some guy in a pontiac grand ***** was harrassing me--trying to pull ahead and slow down--try to sideswipe me--nasty creature--so i outran him until i hit traffic, then there were more witnesses to his evil and rude behavior.

dam my AE runs FINE.

had a tire blow out on a freinds 3kGT while doing 90 trying to get home before his parents woke up, that was kinda funny, scary as hell, but limping home on a damn spare for 20 miles sure sucked..
