Default New Firehawk in Pittsburgh!

Well I did it!

Graduated from college last month with my bachelor's of education and did the first thing I told myself my freshman year: "If you make it out of here with a teaching degree (very hard here in PA) you're gonna reward yourself with a nice car".

Enter:


2002 SLP Firehawk #1008.
55K miles.
M6
$16,500
BEAUTIFUL!
The first time driving a manual and I took it on a 350 mile trip. I did pretty well with it. The car is stock from SLP (if you can call it that). The previous owner added subframes and a strut tower bar. He also installed an Apline head unit, speakers, and sub. The pics make the car look dirty and it is. The constant rain in Pittsburgh hasn't given me much of a chance to clean it up and our garage is full of wood and remodeling tools for the next month.

I love this car, hands down. I sold the V6 to my sister's boyfriend. He will be picking it up this week.














1 <3 The LS1.
Oh! and I forgot I bought the car from an LS1tech.com classified. I am the 3rd owner.



WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
