Default Hi from Iraq
Hi everyone.
I just thought I would check in and say hi. I have been deployed for over a month now and I just got over my GXP withdraw.
I saw a newer Caprice LTZ in Kuwait and thought I would share pictures with you (even though it is really dirty). I still can't believe GM sells this thing in the Middle East and not the US. It needs to be the next Impala. Take care!

you think that Caprice LTZ is nice? look out for their Caprice SS, which even has the deer emblem on the trunk. bring one of those back here if you can
