Thumbs up Another Newbie

Hi all. Been lurking on the site since Jan. when I picked up my 04. It's a very informative site and I thank all those that post. Looking forward to getting to know the car. As I live near Edmonton, Aberta, it will be maybe 4 more weeks before I take it out, still 2 feet of snow in the yard! The car is Sapphire, 6 speed, with only 10,700 kms, or about 7000 mi. on it. I'll register the vin when I get a chance to read it again, and check the doors for rust (would have never thought of that). Will be doing an oil change using Amsoil Euro 5w-40 and Mann filter (thanks again to all the posters).

Truely a gem of a find!!! With only 7,000 miles on her, she's just barely broken in.

Gord,

Welcome! I think you'll love the car, and the help from this group will make that even easier. I bought mine this January, with 74K miles on it. It is still beautiful, and I think it would pass for new. These cars are well built and will last if maintained.

Your car must be a jewel with so few miles, and I love the color. It is really hard to improve on the look of the Crossfire.

Enjoy it!

Michael

Welcome to another neighbor from the north. Sure bet you can find some good roads to run once spring comes sometime in July.

You have a fellow member and owner in Edmonton who goes by the name of Sandgrounder, you should meet up with him sometime. He is a keen member and gets to many GTG's.

Thanks for the welcome! Just registered the vin (4X006317). Uncle Al, we have great roads up here, straight and full of semis and potholes! Keeps you on your toes. 180, I'll keep on the lookout for Sandgrounder.
