Well I need to get my Silver-nogo sold so I can get my mom a new Cruze, But I'm going to hold off as long as possible, and I have a 40 mile daily commute at a minimum to work so I don't wanna be guzzling gas, but don't want the miles on my baby either

Can't that I've heard of that, or new Vortech was in the TS game, but I don't really keep up with Modular .






Also, racegas=racecar.

Putting a 400 shot on a 13:1 forged motor.


My mothers coming into quite a bit of money and offered to buy me a new toy for taking care of her and helping her for so long. She was stabbed 11 years ago and she cant work and cant live alone so ive been the man of the house since i was 12 pretty much. She fell and broke her leg over the summer and the person we rent from is 1000% at fault. Painted wooden stairs with no railing and no awning to block rain = bad fall. So im looking at some new vehicles. Maybe a viper or a new gt500 depending on how things go and according to the lawyer they are going very well. So, well see.
