Not bad for 106k miles...

Besides some scuffs on the front lower bumper, and some misc. dings and whatnot, paint shines up ok! I was terribly bored on Friday with no class so I washed and waxed.

And a few with my buddy's Goat.

Thanks for looking. Comments welcome, camera was a Sony 5.x MP something or other, I don't know because it wasn't mine

Camera is a Nikon L3, 5.1 MP....i believe you took these pictures. It's hard to suck at taking pics with a point a click camera...but I've mastered it.

Is your car lowered, because the GTO looks a foot taller.

The GTO just doesn't sit on the ground.

It's because it is I guess... my car is stock height, funny, I thought mine was the one riding like a 4x4

Honestly in person, the GTO just looks like a much bigger car, it aint just pics. Thanks for the "compliments" I guess

Never realized they were so much bigger than f-bods. Keep up the good work! Don't forget to take after shots when you get done with the Zaino or Tropic-care!

Thank you! I remember seeing the former owner of the car near when I first got mine before he sold it, INSANELY clean for 136k! Those ZR1s he had too...

After this flooding we had and the drive back to school it was all a waste, oh well now I get to clean it again
