Hi there!

My name is Chris and I just picked up a very prestine 00 GT coupe. It has every option that I can tell, HUD, roof, neutral leather, Bose, etc. I've got to check the RPO codes to see what its got. The thing is spotless, I don't think it's seen any winter driving from the looks of it.

I haven't done much yet, just de-badged it and DRL delete. I need to claybar it and polish it, etc. but for a quick job, it came out pretty good. I think it's had a lot of wax in the past.

Love it so far!! Great site too!!!!

Thanks!

I'd like to put some 17-18's on it, but would like to stick with Pontiac rims or the Cobra 5 spoke, those look good. I'll probably do some maintenance things, and when I do, I'll upgrade. I'd like to tint the side windows at least, but nothing limo, probably 35% to stay legal.

I doubt I'll ever do any heavy mods to the engine, just get it breathing better, maybe a PCM tune. Tint the tails maybe. I'd love to find a GTX hood. I'll probably keep looking around for various things and deals.

Nothing major...

Yeah that's my hunk -o-junk. LOL

It's a 99 with ARB's front & rear with an Onboard Air system, 4.56's and a 4.5" lift riding on 34" LTB's. It's a lot of fun.
I'm a member of the ME4x4.org club & we go on runs almost every weekend.
