Default Guess what is in my garage!!

Just picked up my car tonight. 03 Suzuka Blue - God I love the color combo.
I've got to be good for 600 miles, and check the oil at every gas fill up.
Hope I'm not missing anything.

Thanks for all the info. This board is the best. You guys are great.

Thanks,
Doug

Usually a car with under 600 miles on it gets pretty good gas mileage (26 or better). As soon as they get 600 (VTEC TIME) the mileage drops substantially (21 or so). Must be something wrong with the car?

Cool. Someone from Terre Haute with an S. Did you get it at Thompson?

Mine is currently being stored this winter in Farmersburg while I drive a beater truck.

I got the chance to test drive two different S's before I got this one. I took both of those to 9k and each had over 1000 miles. I still have a smile on my face.
Thunderchicken - I did get the car from Thompson. They have been great to me.
