Congrats on your new purchase. There is a lot of good information here and people are generally friendly here. Stay away from the political threads though lol. Post some pics of your car when you get a chance.

Chris,

Welcome to a great forum, and a great car! I've had mine less than a year, and am still grinning. There is great information here on how to maintain, fix the routine little things that seem to be common, and to modify if you are inclined. There are links to necessary reference materials that you'll enjoy.

Don't save it, drive it! West into the mountains. I hope the traffic in Virginia Beach is better than it was the six years I lived there, but I suspect it is not.

Welcome Chris! I see a problem off the bat. You got one of the slow colors. You'll have to just sit and watch as the red ones pass you by

Seriously, congrats on your purchase of one of the most trouble free cars you'll ever own.

I have the same color and I have to say that while black was what I was looking for I would never turn back on the Sapphire Silver Blue Metallic Clearcoat. It just looks classier in my wives opinion and hers is the only opinion in the house that matters

Congratulations on your recent purchase. Sounds like you found a really exceptional 04 model out there. And welcome to The Forum. Info from here is always good and any issues that surface have probably been experienced by others with solutions already known. You're going to like the way you look after driving this car!! Perma-Grin!!!!!
