Hi Folks.
My name is Richard and I live in Los Angeles (westside). I am the proud owner of a 2k Max SE which i bought a week ago today, not sure what the color is other than Maroon (some one said Mahogany is this correct).

Richard

I believe the correct name for that colour is Merlot. Real nice!

Anyways, enjoy your new ride

Anniversary Edition. An SE that comes with body kit, chromed wheels, and a whole bunch of other stuff to make it look better. Plus, it has 5 more hp because of a larger exhaust that is shared with the I30.

Be Careful, Fairlaner!

I originally joined the group to find info on springs and a sway bar. After reading about what everyone was doing, I got hooked. Now I've got more mods than I ever wanted or needed and am looking to do more. My wife thinks I have some kind of disease.

Welcome, good luck and try not to get a bad case of "mod-itis".

Welcome!

Welcome to the forum, if you're like most of us you're already in love with your max from the second you drove it off the lot. And may I say, you have got the SICKEST (that's good) looking max already, great color, i'm jealous
