Default I Have An Ls1 :) :) :)

I finally took delivery of my 2004 GTO-Barbados Blue w/ Black Leather also 6spd! I received it November 1, 2004. Now I can go passed the ford dealership and show them what a true muscle car is all about. It is so beautiful, a girl couldn't ask for more.... I am so excited to break this car in. I didn't realize this car could get so many looks.

I will get pictures taken as soon as it becomes sunny. The reason why I went with it was because it was a great looking ride for a comfortable lease price and I wanted a muscle car, but couldn't afford the lexus payment on a 05 mustang g/t! I think this car will be very nice for me and maybe I will buy it at the end of the term.

Thanks

hehe, I gurantee if you mod it at all, when that lease is up you'll buy it. These motors are awesome, you could spend roughly 3,000 and have a whole new beast assuming your not above buying used parts.

Congrats but I've learned that if you really want the car, don't lease it. You'll pay more when the lease is over. I'll never lease again unless its for business.

NICE!! The GTO with Barbados Blue is perhaps one of the most BADASS looking cars on the planet right now. I hear they're discontinuing the color for the '05+ models, which sucks because that color is incredible. PICS PICS PICS!!!

Who cares if I leased the thing, I am going to whip her in to shape in no time..... The color is amazing. Tonight after work I will take some pics if it stops raining.

Thanks

Just saying that it would have been cheaper to finance it. I found out the hard way. Congrats on the GTO.

No big deal.... I might not want it after 3 years, so it will be fine. All though I am in love with it right now.

Pictures shall be taken this weekend!!!!!

If you don't want it after 3 years, make sure you return it to stock or else they'll charge you for the mods you made.

By the way we'll also need pics of you. New members are required to post pics of themselves if they're female. Didn't you read the FAQ?
