Love it so far...

So far so good...a little difficuly getting used to...especially the pwer band. I mean Im pretty amateur at a stick and you really need to have this car at the right gear obviously to feel the power...lol. It seems like it really likes to be run 2500 RPM's plus...probably seems like a stupid comment to all of you but keep in mind I am a newbie. Got on it pretty good today though for a bit...definately intimidating power to a first time roush owner...Im hooked...

ya, they don't like to really lug below 2k. if you want to wake her up a bit, after you adjust to the power, put in 3.73 gears. that'll be the best bang for the buck for a kick in the ass!

Welcome to the club man. If you really want to see why so many of us own roush's get real close to a K rail or go through a tunnel while holding your RPMS around 3K. Listen to her rumble.

Thanks for the "welcoming"

Thanks guys for the warm welcome...yeah I bought it off ebay motors last week. Had been looking for quite a while and when I saw it list on ebay I called and spoke with the people for a while, felt comfortable they were truthfull and clicked buy it now cause i got the feeling if I waited til I could have gotten to where the seller was it might have already been gone...so thats the story. I also appreciate the warnings of being cautious...I am definately a newbie. I plan on driving it for a bit then get started a few mods....Cant believe how many Ohio people are on this board too! I can honestly say I have never seen a Roush on the road around the Toledo area. Well...off to work...but gotta work to be able to play!

Will we be seeing that new ride at the Woodward Dream Cruise? I have never been and cant wait to bring my baby. The "Princess" (by the way the other half hates when I call her that) will be making her debut at the DreamCruise and I am SOOOOO excited. Just dreading the 10 drive from Charlotte....hoping there arent any dips in the interstates.

Hope you didnt buy it to show anyone up on the streets because (compliment that it is) a lot of true stangers that know what a S3 is all about will be very hesitant to mess around with ya. But I can guarantee some fun with Vette's. These doods in their vettes that make the misconception that a "girl dont know how to drive that thing" has lead to MANY embarrassing moments on their parts.

FN disclaimer....I am not promoting nor do I condone Street Racing. I am just making reference to hard acceleration at the green light within the limits of the law!
