Hey all

Hey all was invited here by Rich Z from corvetteforum.

Name's Long, I'm from Fort Myers, FL but 9 months out of the year I'm up in Savannah, GA for school at Savannah College of Art and Design, i'm a Graphics Design major, also been working in the industry for over 7 years now. I'm also 20 years old btw.

My main daily driver is my pride and joy, a 2004 Cosmos Purple Pontiac GTO A4that is supercharged, and cammed, and yes it's faster than my vette.

My weekend warrior is a 2001 Triple Black C5 Convertible M6 :P

I currently work 3 jobs on top of school, designer at Flynn Design, Freelance, and Real Estate down in FL when I get the chance.

I'll be back in FL starting June 2nd for a couple of weeks so if anyone's in the Tampa/Fort Myers area let me know, we'll go grab dinner and some drinks or something.

Welcome to the site! I can't say that I like the GTO, but I bet yours is damn quick! I know this year is the last and then they are redesigning it. I hope they do a better job than copying the Monero.

Sounds like you have a pretty busy life with 3 jobs and school. More power to you. I couldn't do it. I'm not that motivated!

Edit: I'd like to see a few more pics of the GTO. I don't think I've ever seen Cosmos Purple before.

to the site. I used to have a '66 GTO many moons ago. I did a LOT of mods to that car and learn a lot from it. After about the third time that I spun rod bearings I sold it and got out of doing car stuff. But I did enjoy the hell out of that car when I had everything running right.

Enjoy yourself here. We are growing daily and got a real good group of people here.

A day pic that really shows off the color justice, compared next to a stock GTO:

Welcome to the site! I think I have seen your GTO at the Fort Myers Racing meet. I currently own the green Audi TT and you talked to myself and my buddy with his yellow 04 GTO w/ intake/heads/headers/cam.

Ah yes, Steeth, looking forward to seeing his car again.. Lots has been done since we seen each others cars stock...

You guys still go to FMR?

Very rarely (probably every 2 months or so), our group, Florida Car Club meets up in Naples. Steelth (Jason) goes there mostly every week. If you ever would like to come by a meet, just check out our website www.FloridaCarClub.com & check the events/meets forum.

FMR has become too much of an idiot and ricer nation for me now, doing burnouts in parking lot and drifting in shopping carts what are they thinking?

I'll check it out, hell I'll probably come out to Florida Car Club one of these days, thanks for the link.
