Hi Guys...

Post by SEEMYFTO »

Hi everyone! I just bought a 1994 FTO GPX Coupe and am picking her up tomorrow...First time Mitsubishi owner...I've never really owned anything apart from Holdens, and to be honest, up until 6 months ago, I never knew FTO's existed...My bad, but when I saw this beauty, I just had to have her...
She's a black beauty, auto, sitting on 18's...She aint perfect, but that's to be expected from a car this age, but with a bit of TLC, this girl will be perfection...
Anyway, no doubt I'll have a million questions to ask, so I'm pretty glad I found this forum :)

The pics are a problem...I'm having a bit of difficulty resizing them...
In regards to saving fuel, It costs about $80-$100 to fill the Senator depending on the price so it'll be nice and hopefully fuel efficient

Just use your photo viewer. I got (Nero Photosnap viewer essentials). There should be an option to edit--->re-size. and just reduce the pic to like 1200 pixs. save it and it should let you upload. :?

      WTTC mate.

      A black FTO will only be as fast as a red FTO when it has a rocket attached to it. :cheeky:
