Default Hi from San Diego GTO / G8 owner

Hello everyone, I'm Dean, here in San Diego area. I'm a serious Car Crazy guy. I have a 1970 GTO and I just traded my 2005 GTO in on a 2009 G8 GT, pacific slate metallic. I have a BRAND NEW 2002 Collector Edition T/A still on the showroom floor since 2002 that I just put up for sale on eBay.

Best regards, Dean

It's been there because the owner is a serious car guy and it was there to get attention to the dealership, I don't think he was interested in selling it until recently when I offered to sell it for them on eBay, so they took my proposition. The sticker price is 39970 from the factory, that discouraged a lot of early on potential buyers, but that's what I've started the bidding at. The reserve is quite a bit higher, as it's certainly the last chance at getting a brand new Firebird CE T/A, and someone, somewhere will be interested. It's worth a try, and if it doesn't sell, no loss, it'll wait where it has been for 6 yrs already, right there on the showroom floor. I'm just getting started, so we'll see how it goes. Sounds crazy, I know, but it is really something special, so I'm going for it. Best regards, Dean (no I don't own the dealership, I just got a part time sales position)

Oh, so you don't own the car? It was just never sold? And thus not moved really moved?

I actually read the ebay link this time. hahaha.

Wow.

I'd really like to come by to have a look at the T/A. I've been wondering what they looked like when they were new. Seems like this would be one of the last chances to see that.

If you could PM me the address, I'd be very much obliged.
