So for those that don't know, I sold my car to the one and only Handy_Andy.
I'm down to one car, a 2011 Volkswagen Routan -- which is amazing by the way. I really don't need two cars in the family (I bike and take a train), but having a second car would be nice.
Looking at QX56 prices, they've depreciated very nicely for me to scoop one up and looking out for a clean one. But to someone like me, what's more important, is researching my mods beforehand...
I prefer the 1st generation style (as I do the FX's), and looking to advice from anyone who has one or knows something about these QX56's. Someone told me to get a 2008+ because they had larger rotors/calipers. That's the kind of advice I'm looking for (even though that exact point won't matter because I'll be throwing on an aftermarket BBK!).
I'm also contemplating a Stillen Supercharger and paying a premium for full warranty and installation at a Stillen approved facility (which happens to be my Infiniti Dealership). I don't care about gas mileage, I'm more concerned on potentially annoyance of sound and if it will wear off like a novelty. Turbo's I never get bored of, but supercharger whine -- yeah.
Dropping the QX is top priority too, but I've read of the aftermarket company that makes them, they are prone to snapping (sound familiar?).
Anyways, if you have a QX56 or know about them -- let's hear the comments.
