    Ive been a bit of a lurker for the last month or so, but I thought I would post up and officially say "hi"

    I got my 300CSRT8 a year ago after my last car got totalled. It was a bad accident and I was laid up for about 4 months, so didnt get much chance to drive it much last year - I even had to have the wife do the test drive! (no worries there, she loves to floor it all over town too!). Ive only just rolled 4k miles on it. Actually, ive been a bit lazy and still need to get it into the dealer for its first service/oil change/TSBs. Hopefully that will be next week.

    Ive been slowly doing some cosmetic mods over the winter but im getting the bug again and want to do more -so look out for lots of questions in the future!

    Im still getting used to the American muscle and im loving it. I was born and raised in London (England) and I moved to the Chi burbs 4 years ago. Obviously imports are all ive known and when i first got here i swore id never own a domestic, but slowly they've grown on me and I now own a Chrysler, Jeep and a Dodge!

    Anyway, im always up for learning and making friends, so if anyone is meeting up let me know - ill have a beer with ya!

    -Lee

    yeah, about 80-90% recovered. Accident definately wasn't fun....car went ~100ft down an mountain-side embankment and hit a tree. Luckily I had a roll cage installed - it did its job and saved my life.


    So, on a light note, any M&Gs or get-to-gethers in the Chicagoland area?
