Great pictures. Congraulations on being the 1st member to own a MY04. Please continue reporting on your new baby as you drive it past the 600 miles.

isn't it interesting how less than 2 months ago, the majority of us were all put off by the proposed changes, particularly with the motor and suspension, and now it seems nearly everyone is envious and excited about the MY04's.

Sounds good that you waited, that's what I'm doing. I just need to save up the money. If my job works out the way I want it to and then balancing that with school it shouldn't be a problem. Or atleast that's what I tell myself

P.S. Do any of you know if the MY05 will be the exact same as 04 and when would typically be the latest to buy a new MY04?

Dont forget to check for the spacers on the springs that are supposed to be removed during PDI

That must have been a secure feeling seeing your car come off of the truck and being able to stay there while they unwrap it and do the PDI.

Righteous.

No, the F20 has it as well according to the Car & Driver article
http://caranddriver.com/article.asp?sectio...article_id=7274
4906 feet per minute at 8900 rpm for the '03 vs 4761 feet per minute at 8000 rpm for the '04
Don't worry though, I'm not ready to get rid of it just yet
The smiles have just started and I have a feeling they're only going to get bigger once she's broken in and I get to play with that 4761 feet per minute
