Enjoying my new-to-me 2004

Picked it up about a week ago.
Its the grey model with the two tone leather interior.

Engine was replaced about 2 years ago.

Had an oil change done and it looked over by a mechanic and its in good shape. Some minor issues. DRL/brights aren't working. I ordered a new module, but got the wrong one, and in the meantime, put two new high beam bulbs in, which fixed some of the light issues, but it still has odd things going on. (Only one bright comes on, and it stays on like its a DRL).

Previous owner had illegal tint on the side windows, so I took that off today.

Other than that, been having a blast driving it. Most fun car I've driven to date.

Bought an '04 in the fall. I recommend checking the condition of the plugs if you don't have a maintenance record for it.

I just got mine running again after 3 weeks of troubleshooting, parts replacement and deflooding.

Funny, the first thing I had to do when I got it was change the headlamps.
