Drove my new '09 home yesterday. Threw her on the lift to check out the underbelly. While I always enjoy seeing photos of everyone's new rides, I thought I'd post some pics of the car we rarely get a look at. I find this stuff fascinating and understand that I'm most likely in the minority.
The differences between my old '99 and the new '09 are pretty interesting. More attention paid to handling the air flow under the car. Brake ducts from the factory!! All the paint dabs, inspection marks, and notations.
Starting from the front:
The belly pan extends all the way back under the rear diff. I love the vent for cooling the differential.
The transition to the rear diffuser.
Catalytic converter.
Brake duct.
Paint dabs and inspection marks.
Parking brake caliper is nearly the same size as the rear caliper on the '99!
Markings on the back side of the wheels.
And finally a shot of the exterior.
