07 cb gt, injen cai, sirrius, no nav, blah, blah, blah.......no way that thing is that fast!!!
The end.
It is what happens after a good life lived well.
It, is not to be feared.
It, may be in fact for us (speed3 enthusiasts), the best part of being owners.
Embrace the fact. You are part of a small group of very fortunate automobile enthusiasts. Me too. Few will ever know what we...
Laloosh,
Credit due, last pic is sick. Wheels esp man. You have nailed what needs to be done on all speed3's. slick, sick and trick. Much cred to you. (bowdown).
you rule, and you have for a while now,

How many more horror stories can be posted about "over invoice"? This is quite sobering to see how many people get taken for a ride at the dealership. I would never have spent timer or money at a dealer if invoice or more was the going rate. Way back this last June, I paid $22,400 otd for my...
I believe that there is a service bulletin that is out there that applies to this. Have your dealer scan the cpu, and see if your car has the swirl valve replacement issue. This will cure your sped's "hiccups". I had the same issues with mine right after I bought it it this last june. I took the...

Seriously Whitey, what is your deal? You pull this crap on almost eveery thread you post to. You hve done this to me and several other members.
Chill.(bang)
Hi-
Congrats on your new 3, and welcome to the forum!(yippy)
Take a look at your window sticker or at your registration for this info. Either will be a great car to drive and enjoy for at least as long as you are making payments on it. The "S" and the "i" differ in the wheel size and a bit of...
I have been up against several R32's and not one of them could keep up past 30 mph. I know, it wasn't snowing or raining, but in those conditions a bone stock Bug will kick my ass. The experience of the MS3 is beyond the dragstrip, and will keep you entertained even while you are not in the car...
Remind me to stay off the roads where you live. Toxic waste flowing down the streets? Sheesh- we only have to worry about bridges falling down where I live!
Wow Kosh,
I can't believe the luck. Do you think the body shop/dealer might have something to do with this. Have you screwed around w/brake fluid recently? I would take the car back to wherever the body work was done and ask them what the hell they were doing to your car after it was painted...
Yep. Idle for 2-3 min. before you shut it down. Get the oil changed at 3k miles and on your 2nd oil change, switch to a synthetic or synthetic blend. This will help keep the turbo seals from committing an early suicide. I run regular oil with Lucas Oil additive for the last quart. Cheaper than...
Congrats and welcome.
Great car, you'll love it. Put a CAI on it asap. The noise scares the deer for miles! lol. Drive your car, it is already broken in. Just make sure to let the car cool down properly. That is the most overlooked aspect that new turbo car owners get wrong.
HAve Fun!
