Welcome to the club #311

P.S. $32k is a great price.

Here's a couple of quick photos I snapped on Saturday. I haven't had a chance to take any since because the car is in the garage now. Unless you guys want funky angles and bad lighting!

I thought the outside temp gauge was busted! It was stuck at 109 for a long time!! Also notice the water temp was running "higher" than later on when I was actually able to cruise on the freeway. That pix is with the car in stop/go traffic.

What are you guys seeing as your normal water temp readings? Also, in regards to oil pressure, what do you guys see at idle and when driving?

Thanks!

Dang it! Why did the pix rotate? When I preview them on my Mac they're right side up! (either the mac is smart, or too smart for its own good!) Sorry about everyone having to rotate their head!

Your temp runs the same as my 40th here in SoCal.

I purchased #1369 in June 2012 for $32k also.

Cheers,
