I'm not sure I ever did this when I joined but here goes. I have had my 2008 Sky for a year now, I bought with only 10,000 miles on it. It is a Midnight Blue, Factory OEM spoiler, 5 speed. I have already enjoyed my time here and have learned a lot.

Welcome Windancer!
Thanks Bert, has the Manitoba weather allowed you to get out? Especially with the skiff of white stuff last night. My vehicle is sitting on my driveway, have had it out a couple of times just to get all the fluids flowing etc.

thanks everyone, I must admit I have been mostly a lurker this past year trying to absorb all the good info here. As far as mods are concerned, nothing really major, a few small items but nothing earth shattering.

Umm no, snowed all day again today. I do not foresee getting the car out of bed for another 2-3 weeks, IF I'm lucky.

This weekend should of helped. I took my Sky out Friday and went to a funeral 100k north of here. It was overcast and cool but Saturday and Sunday were good, and tomorrow it is supposed to get to  16° C (60° F) so I hope spring is finally here. I just saw a photo on Facebook of a friend of mine's Solstice that he drove to Timmy's for coffee with the top down.
