Any thoughts to go with it given the car is black?

Unsure on the colour though but i think blue inset would be nice or gold?

Also startup mods i wanna fit when i arrives at home>>

Nice example mate, but please think twice about tri-spokes! (up to you of course)

Get some dished 5 spokes or something maybe

Very nice!

I have a couple of questions...

- How much did it cost you, if you don't mind me asking.
- Did you find it yourself through an auction site? Or did you hire an agent?

I'm so keen on importing a car but I'm scared lol.

Gorgeous GTO, good purchase, def a car on my list! A black one passed me the other day and they look huge when coming against you on the road. And its a good colour you got too, either black or white is what I'd choose.

TT FTO smokes TT GTO, I can attest to that :D :twisted: ;)

Grats on the buy, they are a weapon. But weight is their nemesis :)

hello there,
Man its been forever, ever since i sold my FTO i haven't been on the site.
Have had major troubles trying to get this car it got stuck at customs, stuck in compliance and 7 months down the track i got fed up and took the offer of a red gto with 48,000 kms grade 4 because it would come "faster" but still been waiting for the compliance as the workshop that was to comply it lost their license and refused to transfer my car elsewhere or refund me the compliance (i'd paid for everything as a package so it was ready to go when done) Car was finally inspected 3 weeks ago and the plate can't be 2 far off. I call them at 9am every morning and grill them about what the heck they been doing and the kind of business they run. I'm happy to mention who and warn people who the 2 companies involved are once it has the comp plate on an registered so they can't stuff me over for blacklisting them.
Im never importing again, what you see is what you get from now on!!

On a good note though, flew to melbourne to take it for a spin a few months back and drove great, it isn't slow i'll give it that and paint n panels are perfect.

I've moved to brisbane was about 3 months back. :D
Have to bring for a show when its up here real soon.
