Proud new father of a 08 Vapor GT.

I still can not believe it, It was a dream come true. I left the dealership today with a Vapor/charcoal leather GT.!!


unfortunatly it has been raiding all day today, so no pics yet but soon!

I am glad to be a full member of the forum now, instead of wishing and quietly lurking.

Oh let the mods begin!! After I pay sales tax of course.. why oh why Missouri does not include sales tax in the price of the car I dont know, so its going to be about 1600 for sales tax and payment due all around the same time ugh!

but hey, I got my baby!

thanks for the compliments!

I live in Kansas City, although I have lived in the St. Louis Metro a few years back.

I am hoping the Vapors are semi rare, although it can be mistaken for the Tungsten grey if you dont look very close.

I assumed I would get my favorite black.. or almost the alloy... but in the end its the vapor I liked the most suprisingly. That color seems to really accent well with the curves and shapes of the car, it seems to display it a little better In my opinion then the black and alloy do.

Black sure does look great on these cars, but grey hides the dirt SO much better.

How does Vapor differ from Tungsten? I'd love to see them side by side.

Tungsten has more of a gunmetal ( for lack of a better color)hue to it.
Vapor reminds me more of the GT500 Elainor with more metal flake to it
