New to me 04

Just bought an 04 with only 30,460 on the clock and in very good condition. This gets me back into the hobby after a number of years away. Fun again; looking forward to it.

Re: New to me 04

OK, thanks again.
And in reply to SUTYAK: it came with a JLT CAI (ram air package), PRO 5.0 shifter with Steeda long handle, and Borla cat-back. Original wheels and everything else, really cheap tires that the dealer put on, but they will do for now.

Congrats and welcome to the site; don't pay much attention to Larry; he rides the bad luck wave; does not pay attention to his surroundings and thinks DSG makes his car faster... but keep that to yourself, I would not want Larry to have a breakdown because Black is actually the fastest color!

Welcome! DSG is indeed faster. But only at night when the air can't see it.

Well, everyone knows that Red is the fastest color. It just a common known fact that as we get gray, we are slower.......coincidence, I think not.

Even though I got a Red one, I thought white was fastest because it's lighter

Re: New to me 04

Welcome from a fellow Keystoner.

Come on guys, we all know Azure is the fastest that why Ford built more of them than any other color. They knew what would sell the fastest.
