Another new SS/SC owner!!!!

I finally took delivery of my SS/SC today. Been having fun driving it around all morning getting used to the clutch. Damn is it touchy. Stalled it a few times...lol. Also accidentally did a burnout in downtown Rapid City when I stalled it in traffic and in my hurry top get going started it up and floored it. So much for a nice gentle break-in period... I love this car. I like the power it has in all gears. Now I need to save up for a CAI and a stage kit. I also like all the looks I get when driving it around since there's only one other SS/SC in the area. Well now it's time for me to upload some pics. I'll post the link up when I get done!!!

Just gotta take off the dealer sticker on the back.. I got black too and boyy does it look amazing when it's cleaned up. Unfortunately as it has rained the past 6 days here in ohio it doesn't look so hot dirty . And it attracts waterspots like none other!!.. Congrats on your new ride

LOL...I'm originally from Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. I only live here because the air force stationed me here. South Dakota is actually a pretty nice state to live in.

edit...i think they're more of a gun metal

Congrats on a good choice of car. Man you are going to love this thing when you start moding. Come to think of it, even without mods is the ****.
