leggtnut Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Congrats. You won't regret it. And you will learn to love the sport shift with the buttons on the stearing wheel on those windy roads we have around here .

mwr Posted October 4, 2006 Author Share Posted October 4, 2006 Congrats. You won't regret it. And you will learn to love the sport shift with the buttons on the stearing wheel on those windy roads we have around here .For sure. There are multiple ways to use the transmission. I found Sport mode interesting. It held a lower gear even when decelerating (didn't shift up). Lots to learn about it. For a while it will be commuting betweem Marin and Palo Alto on 280 so I'll get some good 75-80 mph cruising. Do you find the tire noise a bit (or more) loud?

srgdrum Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 Welcome aboard. Now lower it, debage it, clear and black out the headlights, buy an AP, get with TDC.... Have fun! I love my 5EAT LGT Limited Sedan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leggtnut Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I haven't knoticed the road noise yet, but I only have 10K on my sedan. But Yes, the RE92 are only fair at best for our roads.

itsme Posted October 4, 2006 Share Posted October 4, 2006 I think it is hi. I paid $25K for my '05 LGT 5mt LTD wagon w auto dim, homelink, compass rear view mirror, rear mat , and rear net on 12-05. It was brand new and I got this price over the phone. I drove 120mi to San deigo to get the "last" 5mt in the state. They can do much better.
