2010 r3

Hey guys, picked up this pretty much stock 2010 R3 with 41k kms (26k miles) a couple weeks ago and loving it. Making the obligatory first post, here's a pic of my ride.

Nice R3 with low km!

Will you drive it daily or keep it as a weekend warrior?

And I hope you have already read through everything you need to for this car.

Thanks! It's going to be my summer daily, and get stored in my garage when winter rolls around.

I read most of the sticky and did a ton of research before I decided for this one. I got a fairly good deal and the car feels brand new! I actually just completed the 30k service and coils, plugs and wires all swapped out to fresh ones.

The only issues I have with the car is its pretty hard to drive civil. It makes such a nice sound that my milage isn't looking too hot

Here's a few more pictures!

Yes, it's very hard to resist the temptation of revving it up and driving it hard.

Try not to think about the gas mileage thing too hard, because we get worse gas mileage than a Corvette... So just count the smiles per gallon instead.

As long as you are getting around 20 MPG on highways, you are doing fine.

Your car looks super clean! Yeah milage is horrendous... but that’s just how these things are. I still wouldn’t hold that against them.
