Well I thought it was about time I made a thread about my GT, from not long after I got it all the way to now and where its heading. If theres any real interest I will post further pics.

I bought it in June 2000 from the original owner with just over 30,000ks on the clock. Its auto with a sunroof, it was factory standard and all he had done to it was limo tint the windows.

At the time he also had an ELGT, two XYGT's (not HO's) and his daily driver was the latest V8 landcruiser, his family car was a black Mercedes CLK 55 AMG complete with a baby seat in the back!!

This is the earliest pic I have, this was taken at a Tickford Club Meeting in Melville about two years after I bought it.
