markpetersonii's GTO - SOLD.

[markpetersonii]

Yep, say what you want, I'll still buy an auto. That will never change.

I'll always be a Pontiac and GM fan but it just so happens that they aren't offering what I want. I'm sure if I go through with it y'all will still talk to me lol, unless you guys ban me for not owning a Pontiac (unless I can still buy the GTO back, which I will still try).

I like the Subie, my fiancé likes the Subie, If I need to get a new car, that will be it. Plain and simple, get over it.

Pfft no Pontiac = no mod spot!!!!!! jk.

You're still welcome to hang out Marky Mark, this site isn't about only currently owning a Pontiac but the love for Pontiac as a whole, no matter what you currently drive.

well lets not get ahead of ourselves here. lets wait to see what happens with the goat..... no sense in arguing if its not even totaled

[markpetersonii]

^^ very true. Good words. we'll wait and see.

Mark, I'm curious...why no manual? After driving four and a half years with two V6 auto FWD cars, I can't stand it! Why no desire to drive a manual? o.O

Also,

I HATE MY SLUSHBOX.

[Crimson]

i dont consider mine a slushbox. i consider mine a 1/4 track day advantage.

Mark, I'm curious...why no manual?

cuz he cant drive manual. but that is no reason to make fun of him.

[[ChaosweaveR]]

Not making fun of him, just curious.

Clutch is teh easy.

[Ghost]

it was jus a statement of not to make fun of him. and it wasnt that easy.

[markpetersonii]

Lol, ghost is right. I don't like driving manual, I've done it twice before and sucked horribly both times. ALSO, the fiance hates stick so, that pretty much makes up my mind for me.

No update yet. Guy should be out to check out the car on Monday, so we'll see after that. Also, I found a better car than that OBS I was looking at.

[Crimson]

now were talkin..

[[ChaosweaveR]]

WRX, there ya go.

I notice it has custom wheels. A BIG no-no if this will see winter use, those wheels will be destroyed by salt and sand. No stock wheels come with it? If purchased, buy a set of stockers with a good, meaty all season tire for winter.

[markpetersonii]

Yeah, the wheels would go, I don't like them anyway.

[[ChaosweaveR]]

Well shit, send them to me.

Do want.

[60DegreeVVT]

Well if that is what you are looking at you should look at the Saab 9.2x Aero

It is the WRX wrapped in sheeps clothing. Hell some out perform, and it is still, technically GM.

What about that?

[markpetersonii]

Haha ok chaos.

The Saab 9-2x aero is nice but there isn't one within 200 miles of me. Also the turbo'd engine in the Subaru makes 35 more horsepower stock. Also, the wagon version looks like an Outback.

He got it appraised and the damage was $5k, they did deam it "totaled" yet. If you want to go back in the shoutbox to about 1:15pm EST its all there

[markpetersonii]

^^ true, but they DIDN'T deam it totaled yet... not "did."

Anyway, I'll b bringing it to a shop that was recommended to me through SoCal Muscle and see what they say. I'll be doing that this weekend, since I have it off.
