Hey everyone! Looong time lurker and finally got around to putting my name in here. The forums have been essentially my replacement car manual, instead of the one sitting in the glovebox.

Quick story to the 8: Test drove WRX - not bad, Gen. Coupe - didn't like the turbo feel, GLI - way too 'plasticky', Civic Si - not too bad either but way too common... came across the 8, took some turns and an on-ramp and... well here I am.

So far I've added the RB oil screens and swapped the tranny fluid with Motorcraft. Quite happy with those results.

Definitely glad to have picked this gem up and be part of this awesome community!




And yes, I've read all the intro threads. twice

 

WELCOME TO THE ADDICTION!

way to go on reading up and doing research. now that you own and 8 and finally decided to post, how about you post some damn pics! the "gem" you speak of doesnt exist until we have some real evidence

 

Yeah...pictures before we start speaking.

Anyway, what part of the Bay Area your from? I used to live in Union City, Ca.

 

Congrats and enjoy the new ride.

 

Congrats!

I take that back if no pics are posted

 

welcome to the club

 

Welcome!

Like I've been told before...

Pictures or it didn't happen.

 

Welcome!

 

Welcome and we gotta see some pics!! or as been said we don't believe you, ha ha!!

 

Haha the pictures are a rite of passage.

Unfortunately I don't have very many good pics, can't take alot of pictures while I'm driving it!

@monchie south sf. I see quite a few 8's across the bay on occasion when i venture over
