Default New ws6 here from NJ

Hey guys, and girls. New memeber here thought I'd introduce myself and my ride. My name is kevin and this is my baby that I bought about 5 months ago.
ls1 ws6 m6







Mods: pacesetter lts, ory, magnaflow catback, lid, c6 wheels, short throw shifter, and ceta mod.

Plan to do much more but it seems like everytime i get some money in my pocket something stupid happens like I cracked a rim on a county road and they refused to pay for it, and someone gave my a love tap on my front bumper while i was at work and left. Unfortunatly we have no cameras in the lot so Im stuck with the cost of repair which is a long time coming.



happened the day after I took all of those pics and did an exstensive detail

but anyway great to be on the site and lok forward to sticking around

That's how it usually happens, and exactly why I avoid heading past 73 from my end of the woods!

I haven't gone much this year but I have been down there almost every other week with the car for the past 5 yrs from 2005-2010....the amount of runs I have on the car is unreal and it still runs strong! I gave the car a rest this year. I'll be down in the next couple of weeks.
