Default just wanted to say hello

Hey everyone! my name is Dennis and I'm definitely NEW to the crossfire scene. i just picked up my Blaze red 2004 coupe from my father(bought it as midlife crisis toy LOL). Problem was it spent more time in the garage gathering dust then being driven around! well long story short he cant drive it anymore so he passed it on to me because i take good care of my cars! So now i have the luxury of fixing all the things he broke or scratched ha ha! Until I found this forum i didn't think there was anything you could do to these cars, where is a good place to start? she is fun to drive stock but theres always room for improvement right?

well on that note, i will end this and hopefully all you guys will be able to help me learn about this wonderful car and make some friends doing it!!!

THANKS!

Congrats on your inheritance and welcome to the forum. Sorry to hear your Dad can't drive his toy though.

Welcome to the forum, anything advise you need for your car will be on here somewhere.
My advise would be if you want to make your car more fun to drive, get a sprint booster.
good luck
martin

04 blaze red coupe...welcome! There is alot to do really just grab a notebook and hit the search button. the question is asked by all new members so ask yourself, do yo want performance or a "set apart" look and even better if you can afford both . Id do the needswings cai and a magnaflow muffler first. I keep a notebook next to my pc and write down facts and opinions as I see them. Good luck. BTW I seem to be one of those guys that keeps it in the garage and shines it too

You just missed the Woodwrd Dream Cruise, we had quite a few members there.
The best gtg is coming up on Halloween at the Dragon.
I'm sure you could hook up with some others for a great couple of days of cars, roads, and nice people to party with.
Welcome home. Irish.
