Pics of my new ride

Here's a few of shots of my new car. Even though it's not a DD, I dread keeping it clean (it's my first black car). But it looks great when it IS clean. The first shot is of the car when it was on the showroom floor and still had the white stripes. Removing the stripes was my first mod.

I like the no stripe look and considered doing the delete option when I ordered mine.... Congrats, it looks great!

Very nice, Jon! Now, how about taking the snakes off the fenders (replace them with the V6 running horse emblems to re-use the holes) and take the Shelby lettering off the trunk. Even stealthier than it is already!

Crazyhorse, while your arguments sound logical, the manufacturers don't always follow what we consider logic. Sometimes I think that's why they're in the jam they're in these days. They seldom listen to either their dealers or their customers.

Actually, since my GT is modded so much, I will probably leave this car pretty much stock. I intend to do a CAI and tune, but that's it.

Now you know that black is the fastest color.

Who's going to be the first one to call me weird? I've owned mine since mid-November and I still haven't taken any pics of it. Hey, you've seen one, you've seen them all.....


Now you know that black is the fastest color.

Here we go again!! Dude, black is the slowest color. Black absorbs the most amount of heat of all colors and in doing so, creates turbulence on the surface. This turbulence causes more drag.... ha ha ha, you've got the slowest color !!

Lets settle the Arguement. White is the fastest.

Beautiful car, Jon. Nice without the side stripes on black and stealthy indeed.
