Cool 6 months/9,000 miles...

...and loving every minute!
Not a single hiccup
My only complaint is the Impulse Blue Metalic shows pollen and dirt easy...I feel for the PBM crowd.
That is all...

My weekend toy is a 1987 Buick Turbo T modded and runs 12.0x (sooo close to 11s), I'm thinking of selling it to get another GTO. There is a PBM M6 with 135 miles for sale around the corner, gut it and mod it, that would be a blast
If only I had a large garage

These cars seem to straighten roads and shorten distances.

For your next one get yellow. It's pollen-colored.

I hear the Bee's think it's pollen also
You don't see many YJ GTO's around here, more BOM.

I LOVE black cars but as a PBM owner myself, I can tell you that it can be a real pain sometimes.

What's worse is that we're in a severe drought right now and we've been on water restrictions the past several weeks so I can't even wash the *&^% THING!!! I can still legally take it through the "touchless" local car wash but it only does so much. I need to wash it, claybar it and wax it but I guess I'll have to wait until the restrictions are lifted.

BTW, Almost 7k trouble-free miles on mine now and I still enjoy every minute of driving it.

Cool Yuppie in beemer braves the elements to say nice car

The other day; 94* I've got my windows down in traffic, it's cooler than work.
Out of the corner of my eye I see the window of the BMW X3 in the lane next to me go down.

BMW: (muffled)'I like your car'
Me: (turning radio down) 'WHAT?'
BMW: 'I like your car!'
light turns green
Me: Thanks! (smile & wave)
second gear barks as I leave the intersection.
Another satisfied customer.

Default Like wine...gets better with age.

A year old as of 12/14/07 with 20,000 miles, loving every mile. Still no warranty visits yet, a few minor trim issues that will wait till later or not.
Gas.
Tires.
Oil changes.
I guess it is a GTO after all.
I'm still trying to best my '420 mi' range high mark(A4), but that will have to wait till warmer weather as the cold likes gas.
Only mods are a Predator tune and an insulated Volant, though I have a ported intake and TB being shipped. I picked up almost 2 mpg with the tuner and CAI, looking forward to seeing if the porting picks up some also.
Next stop Cherry red coated Kooks stepped headers.
Only had it up to 130-135ish due to traffic and deer, did it in an empty tunnel to avoid any suprises, .... felt like 80 mph....amazing, like on rails.

Great car, true heir to the throne.

Hey man, I think I might have someone interested in your 69, I sent him the links from LS1 and here. You still have it, yes?
