Default 03 STR in my garage in Toronto

OK, I won't be driving it yet, but the deal is done and it is in my garage.
This is a platinum on black, 112k kms pretty clean car. Alot of the common wear and tear things were corrected bey the last owner, including 4 new Michelin pilot alpine winter tires, Headlight 'lift' repair, front calipers/rotors.
One think I would like to determine is some good reading to familliarize myself with maintenance and DIY repairs, and diagnosis. I have ALOT of exerience with 89-95 Supercharged Thunderbirds, I have an EASE diagnostic interface - and am going to inquire with them about software updates for this car and what it will do for me, but what I lacking is a good factory service manual - and I gather there is no such printed service manual these days?
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks
Pete

Hi pdr and welcome to the site
Sounds like you got yourself a nice ride there!
This is essentially the newbie welcome sectio nand you're unlikely to get the best response here. Try asking any questions in the section relevant to your vehicle or general tech help section.
