    Targa4s finally first impressions

    I wrote that I got a Targa 4s on summer tires. Finally I got my winter wheel & tire set. They are Michelin... I hate Michelin, but I guess I will have to live with it.

    The car is amazing Adrenaline doesn't stop. Got my first traffic violation ticket right after I picked it up for an illegal turn. Two cops came out to really look at the car really deep, but a cool attitude made them cool.

    PSE is amazing. Sports mode is great, thank you guys for advising me to get the crono package. It would not be the same car without it. However PSE is wierd with the quiet zones (now I know what you guys were talking about).

    After all the wait and all the little problems I had while purchasing and delivering it, I have to say that it was well worth it.

    2 quick questions that I haven't figured out by myself yet

    1. Automatic headlights. Can it be programmed? If I leave the headlights on in the car, close it and forget about it - will the battery die? or the car will be smart enough to turn them off after 5 minutes?

    2. How to switch between metric and english system of measurements in the navigation unit? I did it in the wheel, it was relatively easy to find, but navigation is still in miles and yards..

    Thanks!

    Re: Targa4s finally first impressions

    (1) The headlights are smarter than we are. First of all, when you take your key the headlights are out. Eventually, all those lights will shut down on their own. For example, sometimes when working in the trunk or the engine area I have the lids up for an extended period. I believe that time is 2 hours. Then they shut off to save power.

    (2) For the navigation system there must be a way to convert. I personally have not done that yet, but when in Europe earlier with the car and with a Euro DVD the distance the nav system was warning about was given in miles; the odometer and digital speedo I had gotten in klicks. There must be a way,--I just haven't played with it enough.
