So far I like it!!!!
Hello All,
I picked up a new 2004 winning blue 8. It is a great car to drive indeed. It shifts very smooth even better than my 2004 maxima that I traded in. I hope I can share some great stories and not bad ones hopefully about this car.
Thanks to all that helped me out.
Anyone using the K&N Typhoon intake? How well does it work?
Thanks again

For really???? Dang...so you lose low end to gain a tiny bit high end???? Well, considering the 8's lack of low end...I guess I'll stay away from it.

After driving this car so far for only 100 miles, I have to keep reminding myself that this isn't a regular engine. For instance, letting it warm up to aviod the dreaded flooded engine and things like that.
This car really is unique and I really enjoy things that are unique. I drove my maxima for a year and a half before getting this, so there are some things I need to get used to. But typical growing pains for any new car.
So far the thing I have the most fun with is the navigation. That is friggin sweet. Anyone lucky enough to be able to afford such luxuries(I am really not one of them) I am sure agrees.
I find it hard not driving it
