New here,,well sort of

Hello all. In 2009 I joined this web site but I did not have a car. For years I wanted a Cobalt or G5 but did not have one......well now I do. No it is not a SS nor is it a Chevrolet. So why the user name??? Well when I joined I was planning to buy a SS balt but nothing ever worked out. So now I am here with a 2009 Pontiac G5 coupe and I am from Bridgewater NS and just wanted to finally say "Hello" Laurie,,yeah I am a dude.

Welcome. You have to upload your pics to an image hosting site, ie:photobucket, and then take the direct link for the pic and post it in the message in this format: [img] [/img]

Racing my G5??? NAAAA not doing that. I have had more powerful cars that this one in my past (Z28's 1969..1977) and I never raced any of those.

gmtcolt45:: Thanks for "doctoring up " my pics. The car is very clean,,no scrapes or scratches in the paint or wheels,,really a cream puff so to speak. I would have liked to have a 07/08 2.4 L SS Cobalt but this car is in really good shape and a GM Protection Plan to boot.

Not much,,prehaps some 17 inch wheels,, I am my eye on Konig Zero-In black wheels

17x7 Konig Zero-In Black Wheel/Rim(s) 5x114.3 5-114.3 5x4.5 17-7 | eBay

I know I need 5x110 to fit Cobalt or my G-Wizz.

Prehaps an GMPP exhaust and either an intake or just a K +N filter on stock intake. Oh yes replace stock stereo speakers with something better.

Yeah that would have been cool...but Pontiac most of the time took a back seat to Chevrolet,,,except for the Trans Am,,, GTO,, G8,,, or Solstice. One big thing I like about my "5" is that the interior is black and not grey. My neighbour up the street (HONDAH8R,,on this site) had a white balt with light grey interior which showed up every water or dirt stain there was. Laurie.
