Default Introduction! *pics*

Well thank you very much for having me guys! I have been lurking around the forums for about a month now using all of your knowledgeable posts to help me trouble shoot and solve different issues Ive had with the vette since I recently purchased it!

Now with that said! My intro! My name is Joe Im from northern NJ and I drive a 93 C4 with 48K on the clock. M6 with white interior. Ill do a little time line of the pics but so far the mods are SLP intake and C5 Z06 rims. With in the next 2 weeks I will be purchasing a new exhaust and mods will slowly continue from there!

So now the good stuff! The pics!!!

^^^ At the dealer ship

^^^At the dealer ship

^^^ The day I brought it home!









^^^ Snow storm the week after I bought it.........

^^^ The day i got the rims!!! WOO HOO!












The only difference now is that I have black out to kind of tie the whole black and white theme together!

THE END!

Hope you all enjoyed!

Joe

Just gotta love the unexpected humor on this forum.

How many teenagers walk up and ask what year is your Hummer? Those dealer plates gotta go! Nice ride, now hope your weather clears up so you can get some cruiz'n in it.

This thread has been an emotional rollercoaster. First, joy at seeing a cool Vette; followed by extreme sadness as it sits in the snow; back to joy at the cool wheels and funny comments.

Welcome to the forum.

Nice vette.

I like the ice-icle the vette has at the dealer.

Im not sure if i like the black rims with the white,
Although since you did the tail lights black, I would tint it up to match. Then Ill be a fan..

Looks nice though

PS up the road in CT

Welcome! That is the first late C4 that I have seen that is white with white seats. I like the combination and I have always thought that black wheels on a white cars look damn good

He looks like Silent Bob. Nice car, I like the white on white and the wheels. ZO6 style wheels will be the next wheels I get for mine, I think they look great on a C4.

Welcome aboard and lookin' good! (the car, not you)
BTW, I've never had a paramus hummer. Is it any better than a regular one?

HAHA! Thanks guys! You are all awesome!

Ok to answer some general questions...

THERE is NOTHING like getting a paramus hummer!

I no longer have dealer plates on it.

The rims fit the car MUCH better now that I have the fronts and rears blacked out.

"Emotional roller coaster" is an understatement! Ive had this car for a little over a month and already I have shed tears of pain, hate, and joy over this thing! Plus... The feeling of watching the bank account dip but then the sheer happiness when you get the parts you ordered!

Wrist bling ='s Sterling silver bike chain! WOOT WOOT!

Well thanks again! I was not expecting this many posts! I am really glad that you all like the vette! Ill be sure to post new pics when the weather gets nicer! But for now shes sleeping nice, dry, and warm under her blanket!

Later guys!

Joe
