In this thrilling episode, our beloved Doug DeMuro takes us on a wild ride through the recent updates and services in his garage. The star of the show? None other than the legendary Carrera GT. Now, brace yourselves, because this service doesn't come cheap. We're talking a jaw-dropping $50,000 price tag. I know, I know, it sounds absolutely bonkers, but let me tell you, Doug had it all figured out from the start. He had factored in this hefty expense when he purchased the car. It's not like he was caught off guard, folks. This was all part of his master plan.
Now, let's dive into the nitty-gritty details. First up, the rear spoiler. In a daring move, Doug decided to convert it from hydraulic to electric. Why, you ask? Well, the hydraulic system was prone to failure, causing the spoiler to sag like a deflated balloon. Not a good look, I must say. So, Doug went for the aftermarket solution from Renntech, and boy, did it pay off. Not only is it more reliable, but it also allows him to park with the spoiler up, giving the car a more aggressive and less El Camino-esque appearance. It's all about the aesthetics, my friends.
But that's not all. Doug didn't stop there. Oh no, he went full throttle and upgraded the suspension like a true petrolhead. The Carrera GT's original suspension was starting to show its age, and Doug wanted nothing but the best for his beloved beast. So, he opted for a modern suspension system from KW, and let me tell you, it has transformed the car into a whole new beast. The handling is now on par with the likes of a Ferrari Pista or a McLaren 765LT. But here's the kicker, folks. The Carrera GT still retains its manual transmission and naturally aspirated V10 engine, giving it that raw, analog feel that we all crave. It's the best of both worlds, and Doug is absolutely smitten with it.
Now, you might be thinking, "Jeremy, what's the deal with adding heated seats and Bluetooth to a Carrera GT?" Well, my dear viewers, it's all about making the car more user-friendly. Doug wanted to eliminate any excuses he had for not driving this magnificent machine. So, he splurged on these seemingly trivial additions, because every little detail counts when it comes to maximizing the enjoyment of a car. And let me tell you, it worked like a charm. Doug now feels like he's in heaven every time he takes the Carrera GT out for a spin.
In conclusion, Doug DeMuro has taken his garage to new heights with these updates and services. The Carrera GT has been transformed into a true driving masterpiece, with a reliable spoiler, a state-of-the-art suspension, and added creature comforts. It's a symphony of automotive perfection. And while the price tag may be eye-watering, Doug's passion for this car knows no bounds. He's willing to go the extra mile to ensure that every drive is an unforgettable experience. Bravo, Doug, bravo.
