Finally got my car!

Hey all. I've been lurking about for a few months on the boards. But, I didn't want to introduce myself until I picked up my car.

So 2 weeks back I finally started making my rounds with the local dealers. I really wanted one in WW but was having problems finding anything besides the red and silver. Eventually one dealer found me what they say is the "last" WW SSL in northern cali, but who knows if that's true.
I picked her up and I have to say that I absolutely LOVE this car. I can't wait until I'm done breaking it in.

Thanks for the welcome Wael!
I don't have any pics of the new car yet. My house swallowed my digi camera a few weeks ago and I haven't seen it since.

Welcome bro Make sure you break her in right. Wait until about 1000 miles before you really get into the turbo. Also, good suggestion would be to change out all the fluids at 1000 miles. I did that to my baby and all the fluids were dirty and lots of metal flakes. Made me feel better having changed them. Lots of Evom guys did the same to their Evos. Enjoy and keep it safe

haha...no really...the house ate my camera. Or the wife did. She's claiming innocence though. But with 3 digi cams....it seems odd they're all MIA.

just change the oil at 1000 miles, use fully syn oil, mobile one is not fully syn anymore. so i recommend Amsoil, Redline or royal purple fully synthetic Oil. enjoy the car!
