Default Finally an owner.. What to do first?

Finally picked up a Silverstone 2007.. Fully stock but up there in miles at 98k. What should I do first? I purchased it at a Honda dealership and all the service was done there by the original owner. This car is mint.. Suggestions on what I should maintenance wise first before I start modding it? Already has new tires battery and the top and seats are in immaculate condition. Oil says 40% and all the fluids and bulbs are good.

welcome aboard

if you bought it from the dealership, you should be ok as when they recieve a car from a trade in/auction they usually do a recon/go over everything before putting it up for sale

aside from tires, fluids which are good you said, I'd get the valves adjusted if that's not something that's shown recently on the service records.
Most people agree that the hondas recommended interval is too long in between adjustments considering how these cars are usually driven


im a new owner what to change/check/replace first

more info here^
