Greetings from Canuck land.

Just found this forum, and, seeing as the canadian variant is lacking members thought it would be wise to hop on to this one.

I am switching from a 2008 Pontiac G5 to the car in the title.

Hope to hear from peeps.

thx guys.

love the car so far, cant wait till i am over 1000km so i can turn traction control off and light it up.

now a question if anyone (everyone) can assist. As this is my first turboed car is there anything i should know about the car and feeding of it?

An update of sorts:

I have been pondering alot lately about the fate of my my beloved GC. After doing a great deal of research into the horrific stories i have heard about service departments, (oddly the place where i bought the car was rated really bad even with my decent experience), I am very near to the point of wanting to sell it and re-downsize to something more practical. I have already run into road blocks with warranty issues (and fear that i am about to face some serious ones, ie: sounds coming from turbo, sunroof seal failing and shuddering, clunking from quarter pannels and software updates)

I firmly believed that since this is more of a "sport" car than my previous one, there would be little to no worries as long as proper maintenance was done.

thoughts, questions, concerns are welcome.

Is your car stock?

You can always go to another dealer for a second opinion if theres one nearby

from what i have been reading, most if not all of the nova scotia dealers are effin retards

Well, you've got nothing to lose.

well, what are the odds of being able to trade up to the 3.8 /w nav and auto?? i mean, i have just under 7,000km on it (appx 3,000 miles)

i cant afford to up my payment either though ... that is the tough part.
