Just a question:
You bought the car brand new or used?
If used to say it upfront...you can't asure of any fact regarding driver operation be it supercharging, track beating and general abusing.
With that said...now that you watch and baby the car doesn't automatically mean the people before you did. Just saying, so that noone get's the wrong impression about the S65.
