Hi everyone. I’m originally from Indiana, PA but I now live out in Philly with my g/f (she goes to med school out here). We’re hoping to come back to Pittsburgh with in the next year though and I do come back to that end of the state often to visit friends and family. I had heard a few people talking about Pittspeed before, but I never really trolled the site. I finally logged on and decided to be come a member, also because I have a good bit of downtime at work. I really like the site and you all seem like a close group much like Tristatetuners. Tristate is a Eastern PA version of Pittspeed.

I currently drive a 01 Saab 9-5 Aero with the 2.3L turbo engine with the 2-piece BBS wheels. I love the car and as of right now just plan on doing little things here and there to it. It has a 2 yr warranty and as I’m sure most of you know they are expensive to fix so I’m trying not to void that warranty.

BTW I work for a Subie dealer so if anyone is in the market for a Subaru and doesn’t mind the drive to Philly I’d be willing to help you out.

Well I should be back in the area, hopefully Pittsburgh, by May or the latest Nov. so we’ll have to hit the track next season.

It all depends on what area you were in. I’m on the very outskirts of Philadelphia County, so it doesn’t even feel like I live in Philly. I’m like 5 min from Manayunk, which is like the Southside of Pgh.
