Default Anyone else here in Iraq?

Just seeing who all is over here.
I'm over at Sather. FWIW, I was over at BIAP the other day and saw 2 firebirds. One was a 91/92 and the other a 98+. I was like "I wonder if these guys are on the forum"

Did you actually see Firebirds on BIAP? I'm here on BIAP and have yet to see anything but the typical KBR trucks and one H2 hummer

Yes, it was on the civ side. Not VBC but the Iraqi controlled part. The 3rd gen was red and all beat to hell, no surprise there. The 4th gen looked ok and was white, no t-tops.

I am here on Liberty. Haven't seen many desirable cars over here, but those suburbans with the 8100 vortec's would make nice donors for one hell of a motor swap.

I'm at Talil/Adder. Almost out of here though... I miss my car
Nicest things I've seen here have been a 88 foxbody out on Tampa, w/ typical haji decorations, an '05 v6 Mustang, and a couple of Ninja 600s. Lol.

I am also here at Balad AB. Like merv said, nothing but GOV's and older chevy's and dodge's. Also it seems like the base got a huge fleet of brand new F-150's. They are parked everywhere. I mean new, they still have the factory sticker in the window.

Can I drive one around while I am here? Instead of them just sitting, collecting dust.

I saw it at coalition. That was the only time I've seen it. It had a sticker from some Iraqi biker club, so it belonged to local national obviously. I've seen a little 250cc ninja on base too.

Have they built the one on the other side of the base yet? When I was there they were building one near all the MRAP's..
