Well, new to me.....it's an '06 in black sapphire with tan interior, sport package, cold weather package, premium sound package...had 36k miles on it when I got it.
First order of buisness is tint the windows, and put on some dustless brake pads.....man these stock pads are horrible.
Anyways..........

well, not everyone. A few of us dawdle around in the god's country. One big suggestion, run that bad boy in the DS mode on the tranny. Get a V1 detector, keep the front license plate off, and have a great time . In about a week, you will discover that this board is THE authority on the car. Welcome aboard.
