Hellooo '11 REX
I'm jealous lol. Have fun driving around in that 114 degree weather :P. At least it's SWP so the car shouldn't get as hot as a black car
Eh till I get the windows tinted later this week I'm sure it's gonna be hot either damn way here in KS. Oh 3 /12 hours now!
I was in Wichita this past weekend. I never thought it would be possible to come back to Miami and think "wow it's so much cooler here"
I know right? This past weekend was way too hot with the heat index, your lucky your back in FL near the water!
If you're on the highway then change gears every couple of minutes so that the engine isn't at the same RPM for long periods of time. You don't have to change speed, just RPM. This will help the engine break-in.
yeah just make sure you get us pics first instead of driving it! j/k enjoy the new car!!
Congratulations.Enjoy.Aren't you the guy who got a car after someone else bailed out on their order?

Ooh,hang on. That is the throb of a turbocharged flat four engine. A sound which,all over the world,heralds the imminent arrival of a moron - JC.
Make sure to follow the break in procedure.
On your road trip make sure to very the RPM's. Don't let the RPM's stay in one place the whole trip. Shift in to 4th once and a while. Try to stay under 4000rpm.
That's so exciting, talk about timing to bond with the new baby! Pics pics pics!

Ok so first Impression is OMG I got massive Wood! didn't take it over 4k and took side roads etc so I was changing rpm's quite a bit. My trip tomorrow is about 400miles total, alot of hills and bends on country style roads, so I'll be changing speeds and gears alot which i'm looking forward too. My 1k will be next week. hope these links work.
