LOL no its not in gods hands.... many of you no my gtp was backed into by an old bag "lady" well today i brought it into the body shop that allstate works with and i should have her back by wendsday............ ahhh im getting withdrawals... lol in the mean time my dad is letting me use his 1992 pontiac grand am SE Fully Equipted but still isnt even close to my baby =[ i miss it haha ill fill you guys in with before and after pics =] when i get er back:th_king-normal:
 


Sounds good man. Happy to see you finally getting her fixed. The days without her will be well worth it in the end.
 
Dam dude sorry to hear that, whenever i see old people on the road i get scared, i have seen soo many old lady's on the wrong side of the road no joke. But Yeah you will probably notice a difference once you get your gp back if you drive the older one for a litte bit of time. Like today i wanted to clean out my gtp cause i was bored, anyways i put my car away about a month ago and started driving my explorer cause i put the gtp away early this year, well let me tell you it was friggin different driving it, i miss driving my gtp!!! lol It felt sooo low to the ground and when i steped on it a little bit like only enough to hit one bar on the boost indicator and it felt soo fast lol, i know you end up getting use to whatever you drive even if its fast but if you dont drive it for awhile its like dam lol anyways sorry for writing a biography.
 
yup i feel ya ryan but im a kid and she is my DD considering im a broke college kid with dreams of seeing her pimped out! lol anyways yeah i gotta call from the shop saturday they found some supports busted and bent and they found the innner fender wheel well is cracked along with all the pins and stuff.... =[ so yeah now i gotta wait til friday =[ lol
 
I feel your pain man. A couple years ago when I was still in college I went on vacation with my roommate and our girls for a weekend and when I came back I noticed that there was a large dent/ gash in my left side passenger door. The paint matched a older lady's car that lived in the apartment next to us. When I confronted her she confessed but it took some convincing from my part to get her to realize that her car's paint left marks on mine... Long story short, old people + any kind of driving = disaster..... And I do mean any type of driving.
 


was there a bunch of body damage? both my front and rear bumpers are trash as far as the paint goes, but structurally they are fine so i left them.

12 second beater? oh yeah.
 
lol nice bio when i saw your ride i thought it was pretty decent? Well yeah old people DO = pissed off other people and property damage lol.... yeah i guess some brackets and stuff got bent also. cant wait to have her back in my "hand" lol " i drive like a cool person with 1 hand on the wheel and 1 hand out the window or on the radio volume knob lol =] god i miss my gtp haha when i get it paided off like 2000 more....... lol then im def getting headers a 3.4 pulley a programmer / code reader a 180 t stat and def a cowl hood =] rims and some fat rubbers =] god i have good nice dreams lol
 
good luck with the dreams. think school and housing/living before your car though. made that mistake once.
 


i must say im a lucky kid my school is covered =] trust fund baby and yeah im still wit mom n dad "18" but yeah gotta pay her off first lol
 
that sounds a lot like my schooling. it is really cool that you recognize just how lucky you are concerning school instead of a lot of other ass#$&* kids out there who piss their college careers away... take pride in that man, it took me a couple years of college before I got it and if there is one thing I really regret about that time in my schooling, it is that. hope you get your ride back soon though.
 
yea ill get her back soon and yeah hamm im going to a local community school but it has excellent academics at a fraction of a university... w.e i like the small class sizes and my autos teachers know there stuff! we are leaning bout electronic systems and ohms law crap its ok i understand some of it not the circuit problems..... ill get it its my career haha
 
yeah I went to a community college for my first two years, best choice I ever made. I think one semester with a full load of classes and books I only had to pay a bit over 600. You can't beat it. Stay with electronics and or anything with cars, there will always be a need for that, always. Graphic Design like I decided to go with is another story.

I'm going through that right now in my automotive course, were beginning to use our multimeters now. I also go to a community college and they offer the same stuff they have at the univeristy at half the cost.
 
I worked my but off this summer to pay for school and tools and i worked over time soo i could buy some mods for my car, but i spent $7,800 for my tools. I'm in the two year course and i just bought both years so i'd be all set. Oh i got snap on tools btw so thats why they cost alot, but i like snap on and i like their quality.

Just think of the money thos tools and school are going to make you when it's all over. It'll be well worth it in the end.
