Default The replacement
The trans in our 06 IMSS started to go, so instead of sinking a ton of money into it, we decided to sell it and buy a replacement. This is what we bought, and had a few thousand to spare too.

Correct.
I had already closed the window when it dawned on me that is a Ford emblem. The rims are off a marauder are they not?

No. The wheels are from an 07 mustang gt. Everyone thinks they are stock because they look like they belong on this car, which is why I put them on.
