Default Hi, I'm new :D

Hey everyone. I just got my X-fire 2 days ago. Traded in my modifed WRX to get it. I like the forums so far and I look forward to partaking in all the happenings here .

About the car:


It's a 2004 black Ltd. Coupe with teh 6sp.
So far I absolutely love it, not as fast as my old wrex, but im working on fixing that

Lil about me:

Congrats on the new purchase. A fellow Canuck I see. Your probably like me and will be putting the car away for the winter; mine is already away and we got our first light snowfall overnight.

I'm sure you will enjoy the Forum and the new Xfire. Make sure you go to the Canadian Forum and sign in there. You will see specific Canadian postings there. All right, eh!

Hey, thanks for the warm welcome. Unfortunately, this is my only vehicle so it will be winter driven, luckilyu i learned to drive in mountains of southern BCc so that helps a lot when snow hits haha. Oh and the ESP system on this thing is INSANE! I got to play with it last night in the snow and ice and I must say, It's traction and stability control was the most amazing thing I have ever seen. It actually took some extreme maneuvers to get teh rear end to break loose on ice purpously! lol Can't wait for spring so I can attack the autocross cones

Well peace out, and thanks again on the welcomes.

Just a word of wisdom from experienced Xfire driver; If you decide to get on it in first gear and throw those quick gear changes, make sure you have turned the ESP off. You will think that the motor just quick on you--a real crap out. Can be embarassing if your trying to beat the electric powered Xfire you read about in another post.
Happy and successful winter driving.

Hunter, go to the main post menu and proceed DOWN to the post selection for CANADA. You will see me and another couple of owners there. Will look for you.
