Default Gt6?

Played with a black sports dont know wtf is was car yesterday. Thought it said gt6 on the side of it? 2dr coupe with dual exaust, looked brand new, cute little thing. Anyway I think the driver knew he didnt have chance but he wanted to see what it would do so I obliged. He was all thumbs up and appreciative of my car so it was cool racing with him a little. But I cant figure out what kind of car it was. I thought it said gt6 on the side fender where my ss emblem sits. Black letters and one red letter. Like gt in black and 6 in red, or maybe it was an S I dont know. It was black so it was a nice looking car to me Getting a lot more compliments with the new wheels on the car and people who see the meats are drooling over them and thinking twice about messing with me. I seemed to have garnered a new respect in the hood as well. No more ricer fly by's my house anymore from the kids down the street. I "test" drove it to see if I had all the inner fender well rubs worked out by their house at 2 rpms. Usually I creep in my neighbor hood and my car is real quiet below 1800 rpms. But at 2000 rpms its right at the start of the powerband. It sounds mean as hell. So I think they got a dose of reality. Yep I live in Oregon, its ricer country. Every once in a while I have to lay the law down in my hood

I had A BUNCH of ricer punks revving up and down my block (I live on the corner) until one night last week I turned the traction control off and the nitrous on. Then proceeded to lay two patches of rubber all the way down the block one way then turned around and did the same thing back. It has been rather quiet around here lately.

Didnt Hyundai make a GT-6? Not horribly unattractive, but pretty slow, I think.

I think we have a winner. Just looked at one on ebay. I think thats the car. Like I said he knew he didnt have a chance but he was cool about it so I ran him. Left him standing still, but I thought the car looked kind of nice.
