Greetings from Vancouver Island. Thought that I should say hello now that I have finally joined the forum. I do enjoy reading the posts, lots of very good information.

I bought the car last June, and all I can say is that it provides more fun than a 49 year old should have. I just installed the GHL Bullet axle-back exhaust and I'm loving the new growl.

Craig

"Nice looking Ride!"
"Welcome to the community Craig. Glad to hear that you've been checking out the Forum. My reason for owning my coupe nine months prior to joining the forum is I didn't even know anything about Forums or that they existed. When I stumbled onto this forum one evening, I thought, "How cool can it get!"
Awesome Rides here and great people to get to know. Again,,, "Welcome to the Forum!"
