The life and times of a yellow GTO......

[m pwrd 3]

I finally got rid of the BMW and this is what I picked up.

2004 Pontiac GTO M6

[keesor]

Nice, really nice. The yellow kicks A$$!

[Jay]

6 gear I assume?
Those things are comfortable as hell inside

[m pwrd 3]

Yes it is a 6 speed, I was extremely suprised by the comfort and room inside.

It has been a fun car so far, I will see how it handles on the 28th.

[narfdanarf]

which year did they start putting the ls2's in them?


Good kill nonetheless!! :bigthumbup:

[Davis Silver Sti]

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Great job Jamie.
I drove (cough, flogged) a new GTO the other day. Awesome engine and super smooth inside. Very impressed. Fast!

[C_Note]

A lot of people like to crap on them but I've always liked the new GTO. Congrats on your trade.

[brummy]

Sweeeet! Nice Holden. Apart from the fact that it looks no where near as good as the old GTO's I think it still looks good, and I'd love to have one.

Of course you know that if you need me to assist you on the proper race line (like the fun rn in the M3) I'm more than happy to offer my services :lol: :lol:

[InterceptorXR7]

Next spring we need to get a road trip to National Trails set up with a bunch of people. It would be a blast!!!

[BLUEVOVIII]

Nice ride! glad to see you got out of that m3, it was hella fun to ride in it at the autox but it was way overdue for a change :)

I'd be down to takin the stang down the track (stick to the RWD theme :lol: ). I wanna line up against the Trans Am Dave!

[Stang420]

Very nice. Those cars look awesome with some nice rims on them. ;)

Not gonna happen till I am good enough, that you cant beat me in my own car :oops: :D

[m pwrd 3]

Thanks for all the kind words!


I would also be down for a drag strip visit!

[m05z]

time to change that screen name now, huh?

[m pwrd 3]

Yeah I will get to it sometime

[InterceptorXR7]

are you going to get 2005-2006 taillights for it?

[m pwrd 3]

Probably not, they wont make it go faster or handle better.

They are nice looking though!

[Jay]

You need some power adding stickers on that bitch. "LS1 Inside" ect. I'd get "Pontiac" across the windshield too that way if you forget what kinda car you have while driving you can just look up. Also so other ppl coming twards you know what it is. Theyre good for what 15whp?

[InterceptorXR7]

i like the newer taillights, they fit the look of the front ones

[daveb91]

Lights are lights. Well you better get em Jaime that way XR7 drivers have something too look at.

[Jay]

1st mods; Headers an straight dual 3" exhaust to the back.

Were you riding thru the parking lot at Warren High School on Saturday Oct 14? I saw/heard a yellow GTO ride by as I was watching soccer. It really sounded good.

Normally I would say yes it was him, but in this case I doubt it. Jr High girls are more to his liking than HS ones.

[InterceptorXR7]

if im going to behind it, it better have nice taillights!

No it wasnt me, I am not down in that area very often.


and Jay you are right, I can still the the jr high girls with candy, HS girls require booze, and as we all know booze is expensive :D

[m pwrd 3]

wow, kinda eager to see how much it brings.

[Jay]

I say bidding will top somewhere around the 7-8g range w/reserve not being met.

[Jay]

9hr's left an it's at $6,900

[m pwrd 3]

Almost there, that is about where I thought the price would end up

[Racerx300zx]

This car is FAST!, lol, I'm seriously crying right now, ah god, at least you've moved on to bigger and better things man

[Jay]

Winning bid: US $7,666.66

haha.. bad omen allready.

I said in the 7-8 range but I was suprised the reserve was met at that

[m pwrd 3]

well, so much for that, some other suckers problem now :twisted:

[chaoseg6]

wait doesnt that have the traction controll button that you can toggle on and off?

[m pwrd 3]

[jde]

[Jay]

[m pwrd 3]

[m pwrd 3]

*********UPDATE**********

I changed the name to the life and times of a yellow GTO, and will use this as a journal for my car. So here come the new updates...


As most of you know my car got "hit and skipped" a few weekends ago. It damaged my rear bumper, quarter and pass. tail light. Not major damage just scuffs and small dents and a busted tail light. I have got some replacement tails OEM take offs, but I have not put them on yet, I am going to have them smoked first. Anyways here are some pics of the damage.

[m pwrd 3]

Also Friday when I was rotating my tires, I decided to bolt on my old Mille Miglia wheels I had for my BMW. What do ya think?

[ramrod]

minus the bmw symbol they look pretty sexi, we should ahve a section dedicated to project cars haha

[RallyEX]

Wheels look great, but the tires are too small methinks.

And I don't have to restate the BMW center thing... :)

[Jay]

What size are they? Look a tad small in that big wheel well opening.
You should get a fly set of 26" floaters. Or maybe those wheels that light up

[InterceptorXR7]

you got your winter wheels and your good wheels that you want to keep nice i guess, lol

[kmfdmk]

The Milaga's look better but like someone else said. You've got your good wheels and you've got your winter wheels :D

[InterceptorXR7]

woohoo, im known as someone else :D

[m pwrd 3]

They are 17x8 same as stock, cept they have a size too small tire on them so it looks really small. With the correct tire size it would look a bit better.

[Jay]

So 26's arent uot of the question then..

I think it'd look good sittin on lipped black 18's.
There's a trans-am cruisin about that has some sort of wicked rolling attire on it. The front's are lipped but the back, damn, theyre deep as hell. Not to mention they look like theyre 11" wide

[InterceptorXR7]

remember what i said about the taillights, well heres your chance!
