That is a gorgeous car! Every mod is so thoughtfully done. That is how that car should have looked from the factory.

I remember going over a year without driving mine...
when I finally sparked it up, and had the transmission shop fix er up....
man on my way home, driving it for the first time in over a year, I had a big ear to ear grin, even knowing my G8 GT was at home in the garage.
Put 270 Miles on it the next day driving it back to my house, parked it at a gas station..turned and looked back at it sittin there, and couldnt believe that I was driving my SSEi again...what a good feeling.

Good to see its on the road again, its been a while :beerchug:
