New rotary owner in da house!
So I finally did it. I was looking into getting the new R3 but with the state of the economy now i couldnt afford to stick my neck out that far. I found a really good deal on this one and had to drive 317 miles to get it. Its a 04 with 32000 miles. Its snowing here in Michigan so I havent had a chance to take any good photos myself but here the one one the dealership took.

Thx. I checked and the recalls have been done. I dont think the TSB have been done but it cranks right up with no problem. The dealership did give me a new battery tho.
Not sure about the cd player. I believe its a 6 disc changer but I cant add more than one cd. I even held the load button in.

Welcome to the club, that is a nice looking 2004. Those tires look like the OEM 'summer' tires. If your going to drive the car in the ice & snow getting dedicated winter tires is wise.

lol yeah people always tell me "your car is never clean" i just tell them come drive your car on my driveway and we'll see how clean it is.
and it doesn't just get the outside of the car dirty, it gets into the car too... pisses me off!!! (im talking about the gravel dust)

Im on the eastside. I had to drive to Chicago Monday to buy it. That was a nice drive back and I drove it to work one. I also have a kawasaki ninja that I ride track and street. This car reminds me of riding my bike and is just as fun.

Experience?
How was your experience with CarSource, USA? I've looked at several cars of theirs on the net, but never visited the dealership. Were they top notch?

It was a good experience. I thought they were going to try add some hidden fees once I got there. They knew I was coming from metro detroit but it didnt happen. You should check them out. I dealt with George. We was a straight up guy. NO bs.
