Default Got one!

I finally got one, after 3+ years of wanting an SS, I did it. Drove 340 miles one way to to pick up a PRISTINE 98 sebring silver, a4, t-top, charcoal leather(I think) SS. Build # 1370. Damn good condition inside and out with only 48,000 miles. Bone stock besides a KN filter. I think it may have the 20TL exhaust too, because it is little bit throaty, but looks to be factory Changing the oil and having the tranny serviced next week. Near future mods include headers, catted y, and catback. Next phase will be a stall, and then eventual H/C. I love the way this thing drives, totally different than a Mustang, not better, not worse, just completely different. And the ttops are the $hit! And I know I know

but I am without my digital camera right now, so pics will have to wait.

Rock on, bruther, it looked good when I passed you last night. I need to check it out soon. Did you get it for the right price? I'm glad to see that you found exactly what you were looking for.

Thanks man, and Jeremy you too. I paid about 800 too much, but it was exactly what I wanted and had low miles. It also has nothing wrong with it what so ever so I was willing to let the extra money gor for it.

Thanks guys, I will get some pics up as soon as a friend of mine gets back in town with the camera, and I can snap some. It feels VERY slow to me right now. My GT was making 500rwhp, so I definitely need some mods, but overall the car is a blast and I love it.
