welcome to the forum make sure before you make a new thread to use the search option. also might want to stay away from the 03 models becuase of oil consumption problems and move to 04 and up

since your stepping up to 04, might as well go to an 05, new interior, older exterior (minor). then once u get to 05 step up to 06. , okok get that you can.

i probably won't get it till after winter... i know sad... but this will be my first RWD and i don't want to wreck it haha. o and also i decided 05 because it is newer and i guess ill go with the updated interior but not updated exterior

im excited to come to the next meet and meet some of you guys. the last sunday of this month right?

welcome! make sure before u buy any 05, check if there's oil in spark plug. common problem! if it does, u have to buy 2 valve covers which cost 500 bucks and either u do it urself or pay mechanic around 600-800 for the labor..
