Hi ignition, just wondering...did you get the silver?

How many miles so far and do you have ANY squeaks/rattles/problem areas with your car so far?

Mine is not bad at all, thank the lord. But here's what problem areas my car had or still has:

1. Alignment off - pulling to left, steering wheel not centered.
2. Wheel balance off.
3. Squeaky clutch pedal.
4. Creaking driver's seat upon acceleration.
5. Rattle from rear shelf.

Where are you located in GA? We can set up a session at dynolab in Marietta if you're interested in getting yours tested.

NO i got the Black/Black with NAVI. As far as the problmes you mentioned heres what i have expereinced so far:

1. YES i have felt that but its very minimal. When i was driving on the Highway and would let go of the steering and noticed the car would pull towards the left a bit. I thought it had to do with alignment.

2. I guess Wheel balancing is off.

3. My cluth pedal seems fine, its uper soft.

4. Need more explanation on what you are reffering too.

5. Havent heard any rattles except for once this morning and i think it came from the Right passneger side.

The other thing i have noticed is that my TPM light comes on sometimes. How can the tire pressue gone low, I barely have 1000 miles on her!


I filled her up with 93 from day 1 after i finished the gas that comes in it from the dealer. Right now Iam on my 2nd tank with 93. So i would like to get the CAR Dynoed...

Anyone here?

My driver's seat has a creaking noise when I accelerate from a stop that's coming from the base plastic trim somewhere. I'm trying to pinpoint its location and lube it myself.

Have you checked your tire pressures? Even though it's new, the dealer may have neglected checking tire pressures. It's a good thing the car comes with a monitor system.

I'm in Kennesaw about 10 mins from Marietta... I'm not interested in getting mine tested BUT ONLY IF TOV want to do a Dyno on a 6MT with 93 Octane then I dont mind them using my car for results!

Nonetheless, we were able to record a 5-60 time of 6.2 seconds. 0-60 was also capped at 6.2 seconds due to our inability to put down a good launch. Once we get acceleration tester par excellance Jeff Palmer behind the wheel sans your author's extra mass, I suspect we'll see 5-60 times in the 6 second flat range, with 0-60 times dipping into the 5's, only limited by traction.



JEFF will get to test ride my car tommorow, after we put it on the Dyno. So well see what kind of 0-60 times we get.
