Big change from last vehicle...
First off, Hello all!!
I just picked up my 04 sunset orange (guessing at the actual color name lol) on wed of this week, and i must say, i am in LOVE .
i am coming from an extended cab, long bed, chevy 1500... the thing was about 80' long, so this is a HUGE change in vehicles for me hehe.
i have been ecstatic about the z, and i take it out every chance i get. my only gripe about it is the stereo... it is hands down the worst stereo i have ever heard... but car stereos are a hobby of mine, so that will be the first project . the truck had 8 12"s in it, but im thinking this car will be much more on the conservative side of the spectrum hehe.
but anyways, just wanted to tell everyone hello and i look forward to writing more here!!

yup, that is the color
here are some pics, its a little dirty, but not too bad (and of course one of the reasons i picked the color was to try to hide some dirt ).

that is just my way of saying thanks for all their lies and retracted promises . well, that and a formal complaint to the BBB
thanks for the compliments . i enjoy this car more than i should, every day. the mt is VERY humbling to a first time manual owner lol. i knew how to drive one, and this one honestly isnt that difficult IMO, but it has its quirks. but everyday once i clear the traffic on the way to/from work, the hammer goes down

i wanna get some black on it to break up the oarnge a bit. im thinking black wheels with a polished lip, or maybe some oarnge cues painted on the wheels, blacked/cleared headlights, definitly smoked tails, maybe paint the door handles black
of course, for the time being ill be enjoying the car the way it is .
