06 X-Charged V6 w/manual 5 speed

We got this for my son to take to shows with my GT vert. Tungsten Grey with painted silver stripes and only 25k miles. Swapped the cloth for GT leather take-offs last weekend. It will be dyno tuned soon.

Yeah, he's a great kid. He won't be driving this car to school.

We will probably stick with the 18" wheels, but they need taller tires.

Wider, you need wider tires.

Ya my school was rough on mine and I only drove it a few times it got like three door dings and keyed once and the best part was that you could see someone key it on camera and the school cop said they couldn't do anything about it I was sooooo pissed after that I quit driving it there entirely and drove my beater jeep and those don't look like 18's lol definitely needs meatier tires

Nice, I really liked my 2006 with the Xcharger Xtreme. Sold it for the 2013 a year ago and still miss that Xcharger scream.

We bought this 05 V6 5-speed with 92k miles in January so he could learn to drive a stick. It's mostly stock, but I did add a Hurst short-throw shifter, 2012 wheels/tires, GT take-off muffler, and take-off GT black leather seat covers. Originally we planned to sell this one when we bought the 06. I decided the 06 was too nice to be a daily driver, so my wife allowed us to keep the 05 for him to drive to school. What an awesome wife I have....almost 26 years with her!
