Default New, yet not so new!

Hey everyone. Just joined and thought I would say hello. I've actually been around the site for quite a while now. My best friend has been on here for a long time, and so I always looked at his, but for some reason never joined. Decided it was time to finally join, though. I'm 20 and go to school in Edmond, OK. I have a red 02 SS M6, with a lid, a cutout, a short shifter, SFC's, and a tune by Extreme Perfomance (those guys are awesome). I'm sitting at 329rwhp, and 352rwtq. Not much, but it's a fun car to drive, and I'm looking forward to making it faster! Let me know what you guys think. Here's a few pics...
