Default Greeting from Chicago

Hello all, I am an 05 GTO owner and have had the car since April. Got about 10,000 on it and love the car. Been on the board for a while browsing and decided to join. I am usually pretty active on ls1gto.

So anyways, here I am. Nice to meet all of you.

Welcome - I grew up in Chicago, then joined the Navy and discovered Florida and hurricanes. A few guys in our local club have bought GTO's - nice cars!
