      Some advise for new owners; do oil changes every 3 months or sooner if you daily it (although i would not have it as an only vehicle). change the starter motor to a upgraded one, check ignition coils and spark plugs every oil change or so if possible, let the car fully warm up before fully driving on the higher RPM's. Depending on the temperature you can just turn on the car and start driving it and keeping it on the low RPM's until it gets to operating temperature. It only takes 91 octane or higher, premix is a preference. don't let the fuel tank get to below half a tank so the fuel pump doesn't suck up any debris and ruin pump, having the fuel tank above half a tank also helps keep the fuel pump cool and from over heating. Get an aluminum under tray if possible for better cooling under the hood. Don't get any after market "cold air" intake, the factory air box is the most efficient choice (unless you care more about the looks and the sound that they make) also making sure all the air filters are changed when needed in order to maximize engine longevity along with the oil change and oil filter. Now about the car itself, it is the most fun car i have ever owned and driven I will just keep it at that.
    • It’s a poor man’s supercar

      This car doesn’t get the credit it deserves here in the U.S. besides the poor gas mileage (which I don’t mind cause it comes with the territory) this car is a wonder to drive. I got an automatic because I am not a very experienced driver but even with an automatic I get a grin from ear to ear every time I get behind the wheel. The paddle shifters are a treat to use as I rev this thing up to 8500 rpm before I have to shift up. Even with the post pandemic car prices this car is still underpriced, so if you find a post 2009 model with under 75,000 miles do yourself and buy this car. It’s the most fun car I have ever driven and as long as you keep up with checking the fluids and using Royal purple engine oil this thing is going to take care of you.
