Wtf
So I finally get my license back and something is wrong with my car
 I'm almost positive it's loose piping or something with my exhaust but it still has me pissed off.. I went around a corner and all of a sudden it had a much deeper sound.. At first I thought something got caught under my tire because it felt like it was vibrating my car a bit so I pulled over and checked my tires and nothing.. So I decided it'd be safe to drive home and I made it home.. Also when I got home I got out with it running and there seems to be little / no fumes coming out of my exhaust now.. Think I'm right? |

if your exhuast craked or broke it would be hanging down. cuase such a loader sound and vibration. i had that happen. get down and look under the car.

Took a lookie-loo underneath it today.. The exhaust snapped in half.. It's rusted as fuck underneath there..
 edit1:my mom is going to look at the warranty we got from the dealership to see if it's covered under there, hopefully it is.. if it's not does anyone know the price difference between a stock exhaust and an aftermarket one? I mean if I have to pay for the damn thing might as well throw an extra few bucks down and get something better edit2: well looking online it looks like the stock exhaust system is about 60-100 dollars cheaper than the Greddy Evo-Evolution catback system.. so if it comes to me having to pay to replace it I think that's what I'll go with..

actually the exhaust is a consumable and won't be covered under any warranty. i like the thermal exhausts a lot, and right now they my reps are able to give me some killer deals on them, for a around 470 shipped. i think wit hthe greddy evo2 i will be able to do it at around 520 shipped or so.
