congrats!!! drive carefully and learn how the car behaves.
i remember the first day i got my S. i had a grin from ear to ear

 

I'm guessing you kept it below 33 mph that day...

 

i agree with the HSBC bank as being horrible...i had them when I first purchased my car and re-financed to my credit union as soon as I could.

 

It was snowing and cold so I washed and waxed it.

then as soon as the weather broke I drove the shit out of her.... such a great day.


I know you really dont want to wreck your car, but just think about all of us too... with our slowly increasing insurance rates... wouldnt want to piss us off?

hahaha... congrats and have fun with her!

I dropped the top and drove it, yeah it was February and it was cold out but the heater works great.


As has been said already be careful on cold tires

 

^^^ don't forget about the plastic window cracking in the cold weather. If it's too cold out when you put the top down, your rear window will crack. Hasn't happened to me--thanks to all those less fortunate who have warned me

 

..... actually i did.....



jk

 

welcome and congrats

as others have said, be very careful opening it up on summer tires, especially given how cold it's been lately. don't underestimate how useless the tires are in these temps ... it's possible to spin out and wreck just accelerating hard while going straight.

 

When I got on it, I didnt have any trouble at all. Its dropped a little and has 255/35 - 18 in the rear. But I didnt get tooooo crazy.
