Congrats, now when you get a chance lose the hellasunk wheels and get some wheels with better width/offsets/design.

Nice looking PPW, the black roof provides a nice contrast.You may hear some folk tell you to lose the 'eyelids', that's personal preference. Everything OK on the other sides-u only shot front and driver side pics.
Congratz, enjoy!

Wow, what a nice house and landscaping. Seems like a cranky old man should open the front door and yell, “hey you punk get off my lawn”

How can you tell it has halogen lights? If they are indeed halogen, then it is most likely a Base from '03-'05. The Enthusiast came with HID lights and cloth seats.

as has been said, the bulb..
i was thinking it was an 05 but it looked really well taken care of, or new, so i was thinking 06, and some 06 z's still have halogen, not all the trims have the xenon lights. also im pretty confident the bases have cloth seats so it would not be a base trim

but i knew it was a touring :P but having the 06 touring and having xenons i figured it wasnt an 06 or it was an 06 without the xenons

either way it is well taken care of for 100k
and id rather keep my stock wheels then have those, but i suppose its personal preference though.

I know you can tell by looking at the bulb. But.........how could you see the bulb in those three pictures? And since it is a Touring, it obviously has HID lights.

an 06 touring would have HID's but im pretty sure one older than 06 does not have HID's and as was said he has halogens, and he said its a touring so obviously the touring does NOT have HID's
only 06 and newer
