I love the interiors on the GTOs and they are so much more solid than Fbodys. I feel like im riding in a tin can after I get out of a gov't car or my Jeep and then get in the SS. My gov't car is a brand new 09 Pontiac G6 V6 and I actually like it alot - not enough to go out and buy one, but it is really nice

Oh, and the title to the thread is spelled wrong.lol

Subscribing. Always a pleasure to read this thread. Too bad about BPS. When I lived in Newport News I used to enjoy going out there. Zaino during the day....head to 7-11 for a Slurpee...then hang at BP for the evening.

Anybody upgrading to a 9" or 12 bolt in the near future? I finally have garage space to store and work on my car and I'm looking for a stock rear to make my car a roller again. Here's a link to my thread in the classified section...

Default Black T/A w/Florida plates on 264 last night.....

If you post on here, that was a good run man I woulda had you if we woulda kept at it, I don't like street racing though. Car sounded pretty bad *** too! Hey Pharm0r, do you work on Oceana base? I've seen a red T/A with a black hood on that base a few times.

I saw that guy too but unfortunately that ain't me. I have the black WS6 w/ T-tops, Texas plates, and a Decepticon sticker on the back glass. I shoot you a wave every time I see you.
