    Default New liq. red '09 GT owner

    My name is Greg, newbie here. My dad wouldn't stop talking about these cars so I broke down and bought one to see what the fuss was all about. Now he talks 2x as much about them. Pops is a member here, so that will be weird. I purchased the fifth "Holden" vehicle in my family, my brother has a GTO; pops has 2 G8 GTs & a GTO. My son's name is Holden, so it only makes sense that I buy one of these cars.

    Anyway, below is a pic of my new car. Bought it this past Monday. I used to have a 1998 GTP coupe that I rarely drove, now I have this sitting in the garage. I am a commuter cyclist, so this car will be used mostly to support cans of beer while I am in the garage fixing whatever part of my bicycle that I broke on the days ride (I'll be extra careful not to scuff the paint).



    Oh yeah, I like the car.

    It is the name of my mountain bike that I beat like a red-headed child beats his father's car. Nice cars in your avatar. Thanks for the warm welcome!
