Default It's on the driveway!!!

I just picked up my '04 touring fully loaded w/nav. I ordered it on July 31st. What an incredible sight. I can't stop looking at it.....I already put 300 miles on in three days. I have to say that I have no problems others have reported as of yet(ie window streaking, pulling to the right, fuel door problem, etc). The bose system actually sounds ok....not the best but very acceptable. Also the NAV door opens and closes with the touch of a button...or you can set it so it opens when you start the car and closes when you turn it off. The NAV door also comes up and then retracts into the dash....people were saying that it sticks out but mine retracts inward also. Overall....very happy with the car...handles well, rides tight...just going to be tough to keep under 4000 RPM's for 1200 miles....

After reading the forum for months it's nice to now be an owner as well....thanks for all the input along the way.

Congrats

The nav door only sticks out if you don't have the navigation.

nav equipped = motorized door

congrats,

that was the hardest part for me too, keeping it under 4000 rpms. it took me about 2 1/2 months to finish breaking it in. i was very good about it, but i tell you, when i hit 1200 miles i jumped on the freeway and just punched it. what a blast. you cannot really tell what kind of power the car has by driving around under 4000. it will be worth it though to break it in properly. better to be safe than sorry. especially if you plan on keeping your car for a long time.

have fun with your car, i know you will.

Hey ragtopz

2 1/2 months huh?? You must not have been driving her too much. But I'm finding it hard to keep it under 4K too!
