Manual or Automatic? What color interior?
I bought my 04 brand new in April of 05, and my 7 year warranty is almost up. But my enthusiasm for my car (and this forum) is still as strong as ever.

Thanks for the response guys, It is an automatic, which I am not used to having just yet, I have always had manual transmissions before, the interior is black grey and silver! I go pick it up tuesday and I will take some pics and throw em up here

Re: Hello, Everyone
Next up, since you state you are not an automatic transmission fan - look into the paddle shifter kit.
After that, some basic upgrades are ( in no particular order ) :
Single / Dual Cold Air Induction ( CAI )
74MM throttle body
After market head unit that has USB and plays MP3's ( maybe even blue tooth fer yer cell )
Vinyl covers for the headlights/fog lights
HID low beams, maybe ( if u are into HID's )
CHECK THE RCM FOR THE MYSTERY NO-START
get a spare crankshaft and camshaft position sensor ( and tools to install them ).
new battery ( if it's > 4 yrs old )

Re: Hello, Everyone
Not sure a TOTAL noob needs to be digging into the engine electronics box, maybe be OK with a PARTIAL noob.
Perhaps you should update your signature with a bit more specific location than just 'Kentucky'.
Maybe some un-noob member that is not too far away can offer assistance .......
( I'd be happy to help, but I'm 400 miles from Kentucky )
