Howdy,
I recently suprised my wife and bought her an 03 6 and she loves the car. I have been looking for a good message board about these cars and stumbled in here and like what I have seen so far. The car is a V6 Maroon/Red with black leather and all the options I could find. We were looking at many different cars like the GTO, 325I, CTS, Volvo R, GS300 and she fell in love with the 6. I actually had a an 03 6 when they first came out but sold it and regretted it. We are from the NE Texas area and she drives 40 miles each way to work and loves every minute.

Just thought I would give a quick intro. Oh yea and why we didn't do the Speed 6 was because she doesn't like standards :(.
 
Welcome!...You've got some nice rides in your stable ;)

Got (pics) and mod plans for the wife's 6??? :D
 
I will have some pics when she decides to let it sit and quit driving it :). The car is great, we already did a 1000 mile trip in it and the car was great. I haven't found many mods for these cars, it does have a K&N :lol. I doubt I will be allowed to do much to it though (she knows how carried away I get with my cars). One thing that has been nice is averaging around 27MPG with this car as opposed to the 16 in the TA and 17-18 in the SC.

We went out to eat tonight and she had two girls ask whos car it was and that it was so cool. She was all smiles the rest of the night :).
 
The first thing I will recomend since it's a early model automatic is a tranny cooler to prolong the life of the transmision.
 
hmm I didn't know about that problem, I will definetly check into it. Any more info on what the issue is?

Thanks for the heads up.

There are some other boards as well for the 6 owners as well.

EDIT...How about offering additional info in this thread instead of just linking to OTHER sites. Thanks ;)
