Hmmm... Im personally not a fan of the "Tiger Mica" (or it's many variants) that Holden unleashed upon the public... But aside from my own reservations the paintwork is schmick & the little interior touch-ups make for some nice eye candy!
:D Kudos for the "spoilerless" look (Im a recent convert myself!)

Altogether definately a nice looking ride...

Care to divulge any future plans to enhance what you already have going? :wink:

anyway nice ride. i don't know why but i think it'll look nice with a black CF bonnet and a nice black GT Wing. would suit that street racer look. but that's just my weird taste. hehe..

Not sure if I like it or not.

How about painting the roof black so it would look something like this:

Not my cup of tea but a very nice ride all the same. I second the carbon bonnet notion.

thanks FTO338...
GoldFTO - it would definitely not be worth that much but you're entitled to your opinion. although, i reckon you'd be shocked if you put the car up on the market today. saw some nice clean '97 manual GPX's for 18k in Sydney the home of overpriced cars.

anyway... take our opinion and get the cf bonnet! i don't normally like GT Wings but it would look crazy with one on. :D :D :D

Yeah I like. Hey i really really like the door trims... is that a black material over the original centre piece. i always thought that those panels needed a bit of a change to break up the large door. also love the gold highlights inside. oh yeah and the steering wheel.

and yes my FTO will be losing the rear wing asap... looks sssssweet n slick without one.
