    Congrats ken . I figured you'd do something like that as it was 'that time' !I'm so exited your ya. The Twisties will be a total blasst. And Black To boot. Put a few hundred coats of Z5 pro on her and you'll be driving a mirror You know your buds at the dealer conspired all this because they wanted your GTO


    Oh, BTW I always thought your GTO looked like a Honda

        Way to go Ken! At first look at the title of the thread I thought this is a late April Fool's joke but dang that's one heck of a ride you got there! Have a blast and be safe!

          Up until I bought the T/A back in 97, I always had a ragtop in the collection. I "settled" for T-tops in the T/A, but not having those now really has me missing a convertible. Nothing like the open air driving experience! My favorite cruiser was a 72 Olds 442 Convertible followed closely by my 93 40th Anniversary Corvette. Both of those were totally different but such sweet rides.

            Looks Great.

            Just don't add neon and a big wing.

              Congrats Ken on the new purchase! Take some snaps of the engine and clamshell! I love it!

              Loyality goes a long way...glad you found a place that you can trust and buy your vehicles from.

              If the handling is anything like the Miata that I drove a few years back, I know the feeling and that curve craving, twisty eating handling always put a smile on a face...

              Great pick.

                        Very nice! The turbo models are pretty slick.

                        I know what you mean about the turbo - I miss my DSM

                        Put an intake on it and hear the beautiful whistle even more. What PSI do they run stock? You need to bump it up a few pounds - 20 is when it starts to get real fun

                        Good luck, have fun.

                          Nice purchase, Ken! I love the look of those things. I just don't think I would ever fit in one, being 6'5". I am just for the new Camaro. Speaking of which, are ya gonna trade the Solstice in on one of those when they become available? I know you are a Pontiac faithful, but hey, might as well keep the warranty current. Anyway, sweet ride. I know someone is going to be feeling very lucky to get that immaculate GTO. Keep the Zaino pics coming!
