G8 GT vs G8 GT

Got to run a Stryker Blue...

I was getting on the interstate at a normal pace near work (which means accelerating briskly LOL)

Found a nice stock looking G8 GT. I love stryker blue if they had one at the dealer I bought mine at I would've bought one.

He was playing around a little bit and figured I'd join in.

Problem was right as I went to get in 3rd gear in manual mode my stupid work phone started ringing and I was on call (dam work) and he got the jump on me bad probably a car length from a 75 roll.I reeled him back in by around 90-95 and I shut it down around 105 maybe and had 3/4 of a car on him.

I even missed my exit having too much fun LOL. an 05-06 vette fell in behind us but wouldn't bite so I exited stage right...

LOL yours is black aint it? cause thats exaclty what i said and i ended up with a black one

[Tempest2000]

Yes sir you guessed it. I love and hate black all at the same time. its a B to keep clean and its my only DD. I need to get a beater for rainy days like I had when I was single made keeping a car looking nice SOOO much easier.

I had a ticket me red TA and that is soo true I don't think I'll ever own a red car again.

I really like stryker blue, that midnight blue that corvettes had in the 90's the ugly box looking body style had a little hint of purple to it. The blue on the 02-04 vettes as well.

My laziness is coming out now though as I approach 30. Silver seems good too b/c it looks clean 90% of the time even when its dirty at least from 20 feet LOL

Silver - the ultimate "lazy man" color. I picked it for a reason :)

I call BS! No way any color can out run a Stryker Blue :)

[Tempest2000]

It did LOOK fast :)

It did LOOK fast :)

well I guess thats half the battle :woohoo:

Judging by your mod list, my thinking is that he couldn't have been stock to keep up even as well as he did.

[Tempest2000]

You'd be suprised. 1 gear off in a cammed car and it'll be sluggish with a stock converter. My setup HAS to be 4k rpm to pull hard. Under that and it doesn't pull much harder than stock.

^^^what he said^^^

Blue cars are tasty though!!!

All BS aside, I would have loved a stealth blue but I ended up in black. I'm just not a patient person.

[Tempest2000]

Yeah I'm not patient either thats what I payed too much for my G8 and got black instead of blue LOL

Thanks for the assist devilish :)
