Just purchased

What is the name of the Red for the 2004 SSR? I have read some of the posts and everyone refers to some numbers. What is that? How do you turn on the fog lights? Does the painted interior scratch easily? I will be towing my 1968 VW to car shows 2100 lbs will this be a problem? Do they hold their value well? Will it outrun my husbands Vette?

Shouldn't be, depending on whether you're using a trailer

Probably not, unless he loses his nerve before you do but you'll attract more attention!

Welcome aboard from the Grand Canyon State. Where are you located?

Lubbock, TX. Don't see many SSR's here. Love your responses. How many SSR's were produced. My dealer I bought from said their value was going up real good. What years were produced.

Here's mine on a 2000 mile trip - towing. A little heavier than a bug.

Hey Thanks For The Pix. Do You Just Use A Tow Bar? My Vw Guy Said He Has One For About $80. Do The Tow Bars Work Good?

Yes, a tow bar. It should tow like it's not even there. Since the SSR has close to 50-50 weight distribution, you won't have the VW trying to steer the back of the SSR.

Great to have you here

We can always use a little freshness in the discussions. Please acquaint yourself with the Search function..... It will provide great answers to most all of your questions........ HOWEVER... If you are stumped or just want to stir it up a little, post the question to the forum. This is a great family (sometimes a little disfuntional in some areas) you've joined and we'll drag you in like a lost cousin.

Welcome from the south east corner of Phoenix.
