Default Deposit paid 2005 Goat Baby!!

So I've been working at it for a damn long while and at 18 I can finally say I own an LS car. Shes black/red as you can see in the pics, 6 speed, 92k miles. Minor mods include kooks catback and intake. Put down the deposit, picking her up this weekend! Time to ***** her out. I didn't take the pics so don't get on me for the quality!!

Thanks for the tips. The car was in Toms River. I'm not too sure about the headunit, I haven't seen the car myself yet due to my schedule. After seeing these pics I had to get my dad to go put down a deposit for me.

Nice car. Be careful in the rain and snow, the car can get around you REAL fast.

Is it manageable with all season tires? My dad keeps telling me to get snow tires, but I think I'll be fine.

^^^what he said^^^. I personally don't drive the car in the winter because there are to many other idiots that are not careful around here. Plus salt and a black car = a nono.

Ok, I guess Ill be picking up some snow tires soon then. Never drove the T/A in any type of bad weather. This should be fun.

congrats on the car and good luck with it. As for winter driving my gto is a dd all 142k since day one. The best all season i found so far for the winter time if you dont wanna swap out rims and tires are eagle gt's. Last winter during that blizzard i was out with the gto going thru the snow just fine. Its all about taking your time but if you dont feel comfortable with all seasons go with the blizzaks.

Why would you even want to drive a car like that durring the winter? The snow and salt is definately deadly.....
