Hi my name is Eric.

I decided to trade in my 04 alero for the box.

It's a superwhite auto with the the RCA out Pioneer.

I drive alot and got tired of using a fm modulator for my ipod and wouldn't dare put a nice stereo in my olds. Which is only one of many reasons it needed to go. Dr side window falls out of track, battery was bad, nedded 3 new tires, and the brakes nedded changed.

I just moved from Il to FL in Jan. My last toy was stolen in Feb from a storage shed in Il. I left it there to pick up at a later date. It was an 03 Cobra with a Kenne Bell 2.6L @ 18psi. I never got an accurate dyno on it. I really only needed the A/F ratio anyway. Similar setups were 600rwhp and 580rwtq. I miss it. But I don't miss the payment

Here's a video of it. http://videos.streetfire.net/video/0...rev_111175.htm
Sorry the sound doesn't work. I have a copy with sound I can email.

Anyway, I love this frickin box! The mileage is similar to the olds but the comfort is perfect and the base options are awesome. They come loaded.

I was angling for a hypnotic teal with the same options but they worked me a deal on the white on that I couldn't refuse. They gave me $8500 for a car that was worth $5800 on trade. This was at lakeland scion.

Part of the reason I bought it was to tow (I know I'm not supposed to) a R1 which I'll be buying at the end the end of the year to fulfill my speed need.

Mods I'd like are tape removal on A pillar, 18's with a nice lip, lowered, spoiler (on the way), subs and amp (in the garage), and maybe a turbo

BTW if you guys see my Cobra, shoot the guy in a way that will make him suffer the most. Call me and I will come and inspect his corpse and the car and give you a reward. Cadaver removal included!

Take your time figuring out which wheels and drop you want, there's a lot to choose from.

I feel bad for the guy that stole your FORD... (proud Chevy owner) LOL!

I'm a die hard chevy guy myself. My last toy before the 03 was a 98 Z28 6sp.

But come 2003 and Chevy wasn't doing a damn thing for me. Ford had a supercharged v8 with a 6 speed and a shortblock with stock internals that have been pushed to over 1000rwhp repeatedly. I'll ride the fence for a car like that.

Later down the road I wand to LS1 swap a S14 240sx

I know what you mean chevy has been doing a ____ poor job of making performance vehicles compared to ford as of late... But the 08 Z06 will be mine... Oh yes it will be mine... lol

I want that supercharged CTS-V with 600hp.

Be careful of the tape removal. Make sure you really want to do it. On the SW it seems to look better with the contrast of the black/white. Check out the following thread:

Thanks for the heads up. I definately wouldn't remove the tape from the doors as the guy in thread you posted did. I've seen one up close and they only removed the tape on the a pillar and it looked great.

I'm leaving my tape. I figure its one thing that is helping to prevent rock chips on my xB's paint.
