Default Just ordered a 12 GS

I've been a long time lurker, joined back in 2002 while i was working on my fathers 67 coupe. I decided to take the plunge and order a 12 GS coupe in silver to match my Dad's 67. I can't wait to do the RC8 museum delivery!

Thanks! They just finished painting it today. I'm looking forward to seeing it with all the chrome back on it. I inherited it years ago and finally had the opportunity to get her back in shape.

Wow! You might be the record holder for lowest post count as a ten year member!
4 more months, and you get your fancy gold 10 year member ribbon.
Congrats on the new GS!

I forgot I had registered back in 2002 when I was trying to figure out a pulley issue I was having with it. I went to sign up yesterday when my email came back already registered! I'm looking forward to my 10 year ribbon!

I just bought a '12 GS coupe in blade silver. It's a terrific color, really sets off all the black highlights. I wasn't 100% sold on silver until I had it for a few days, now I think it's vastly underrated.
