Default Finally!

After weeks of wainting and anticipation, I finally bought my first car. It's a silver 99 t/a m6. This dude is fast. Off the top of my head i know it has Pacesetter Lt's, Qtp elec. cutout, dynomax super turbo exhaust, ls6 intake, ported throttle body, whisper lid w/ k&n, and a fm11 cam. i know there's more but i dont have the list in front of me.

well, that's the first car he's bought...he's 22, so it's probably not the first car he's driven on his own. Anyways, congrats on buying my dream-car

It's my first car car. all i've owned before were trucks, a 95 nissan and a 2002 silverado. It's definately the fastest vehicle i've ever driven. not sure on the times, but that previous owner trapped 116mph. so it's def. not slow. what funny is that it has some slick *** nitto's on the back and it rained the day i bought it. so driving it isnt an issue.


oh, and the anticipation was b/c i totaled my truck back in may, and have been waiting for my insurance check to come in so i could buy it.
