Greetings!
Hi everybody! I'm new here and I just finished purchasing a new-to me 2015 Obsidian Black CT200H F-Sport with 31k miles. I'm a loyal BMW 2011 328i owner and after 7 years of ownership with many adventures I have finally retired it to weekend duty after today and my other car for the wife is a 2011 Mitsubishi Outlander GT AWD. My BMW is undergoing a suspension rebuild this weekend and is tuned complete with custom intake, catless headers and full exhaust along with M Sport touches and forged wheels, so obviously I'm a fan of making things better. March Modness is in full effect! I'm curious about what this car can offer tuning wise, but I'm not going to go all out because I realize what this is as opposed to my 328i and its rich heritage. I hope I can find something interesting to get into with this little car that I'm primarily going to use to go to work and do ride sharing to get more income for projects around the house and vacations.

Congrats on your "new" CT! Glad to have another owner on these forums.
As far as upgrades goes there are mainly suspension and handling parts available and a few bolt on catback exhaust setups. I don't know of any bolt on engine mods but there are videos of prius battery tweaks. Happy modding!

Thanks, finding a nice one is hard to find in the SD area, most of them seem to be in the LA area. Test drove on Saturday and picked it up this morning lol! I'm really looking at softening up the ride because it's a bit on the harsh side compared to my BMW with stock Sport suspension, but I'll probably wait until I need new tires and upgrade to Michelin and ditch the Goodyears. Another mod I'm looking into is audio upgrades, the stock system is nice, but i wouldn't mind some more. I am curious about power mods just to see what's out there, but I can only afford to mod one car at a time and I still need a few more upgrades to my Bimmer lol

My CT200h came with Micheline tires from the factory.
