She is now claiming that she needs a SSK installed to help compensate for the faster throttle response.
Yesterday I washed and waxed her and cleaned her interior. I used the magic eraser on the steering wheel and rear armrest and it worked really good. I just need a lint shaver for the excess pill up on the wheel. I attached a pic of the cleaning in process. I go through a lot of microfiber towels.... Attachment 11725

The vibration starts after driving for a bit at higher speeds because the rotor is overheating, and it probably finally retracts after being stuck, which would make the vibration go away. This also is the reason for the vibration when I brake during that time as well.
My car has sat for about 2 weeks being undriven, and the roads have been very salty. So I am sure these roads finally did the old calipers in after many years of my car living in the north before I picked it up.
So the good news is: Cheap fix, easy, easy easy. All I need is a Motive brake bleeder, flare wrench, rebuilt calipers, and some brake fluid. Bad news is, I've got new rotors and pads, but I probably have caught them soon enough to salvage them by just getting them turned and using some sandpaper on the pads.
Lessons learned:
1. Don't panic.
2. Relax.
3. Have fun in life :)
4. It's probably not as bad as you think it is
