[QUOTE="jonatbaylor, post: 6387384, member: 614009"] Hey everyone, First, I've read a lot on this forum for about 6 months prior to posting. I suppose I'm just research oriented. I really appreciate all of the information and specs that people share on here. I have a much better understanding of what to ask, if nothing else, but I'm still undecided on my final choice so here goes [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] Here is what I have: Boston Z6's 6.5" with tweets in the front [I]and the same[/I] in the rear, in place of 6x9's on the rear deck (inside, behind seats. the standard location for a coupe).
