my car domain

That's mine about a week after I bought it. Since then it had Verde 5ive wheels, 5% tint all around, and I'm planning on getting some HID projector headlights when I get back home from overseas. I'll post a pic or two with the rims and tint when I get off work. The color is also called "fusion orange metallic".

Haha. I have not logged in for some time. Lets all laugh at the guy with OCD. Just kidding. I just love Grand Am's. The reason I never posted about my Dad and I having three was because people thought it was stupid when we got the second one. Then I saw Shawn had his for sale and had to get it. I would only have two, but I found Shawn's. I don't really mind if people know, but I don't want to discuss something no one really wants to hear about and come off as being c0cky, or a show off....Yay we own 3 cars with a semi flashy paint coat worth a combined total of a used corvette.

We also have another 2004 graystone SE, just a plain jain. I think it has like no options whatsoever.

We have not had a single problem with any of the 4 grand ams. The graystone one I believe was a rental, and they say never buy a rental car, but it has been great. It had 2X,XXX miles when we first got it and now it has 73,XXX.

If the OP or anyone wants more pics I can put some up, but I won't if no one wants any. I don't want to make anyone nauseous from the apparently hideous color... just messing, everyone has there own opinion and I respect that.

Why do you need such a fleet of cars?

OrangeGAGT1 · 12-18-2009, 11:45 PM

We did not "need" the cars, we just wanted them.

Sorry I'm just kinda sick and tired of that question because people ask it all the time. I know they are just grand ams so I am not trying to make money, impress people or anything along those lines. It is simply a personal enjoyment of grand ams. I started out with one and really liked it, I wanted to do everything I could to make it last for years to come (again not because I thought it would go up in value, I just wanted to have it in 20-40 years in basically new condition. So I decided to get another to use as a daily driver so I could still save the first one. Then I saw Shawn selling his 30th and took that one too. So that's basically it.

Yes, I know that does sound idiotic...

. That's a fetish for ya, no not some weird definition this one -An abnormally obsessive preoccupation or attachment; a fixation.

No it doesnt sounds very intellegent to me, With out people having 3 cars we wouldnt have the ****in mint origional 69 Mustangs that we have around today. With the way this worlds going with the salt on the roads etc. Some cars we'll just never see again, especially origionals that are mint with no rust wear and tear ect. Keep that **** in your garage man drive it once a week like people do there classics one day, it may be worth money. I think the same way about my grand am. And i hate u for having 3. I wonder how much it would cost to paint my black gt that color?

burgett2103 · 12-19-2009, 10:35 AM

won't cost much if you know people that paint

I do!

I just realized I don't have most of my pictures with me. I am home for Christmas break from college and only brought my laptop home and my pics are on my desktop in my dorm. However, I do have a few in Photobucket, but some of them are kinda redundant because they were to help promote a group buy on a hood a few months ago. So most are just repeats of the sedan getting the hood. Feel free to search through the whole album, there are only 2 pages. There is some other junk in there too, just don't mind that. I was going to put the pics on this thread, but thought it would be easier to just link to my whole album. I will try to add the rest of my pics to this album when I get back to my dorm, so feel free to save that link somewhere if you want to check it out. Also don't be disappointed if the pics are not the greatest I am not that in to photography.

Once you click on the link hit the red button in the upper right that says slideshow and you wont have to click on every image to see it bigger. (incase anyone is not that familiar with photobucket.)

If you want to view the slideshow with the biggest pictures set your web browser to full screen in firefox, its view---Full screen

These pics are kinda crappy, but like I said I will put the rest on photobucket when I get back.
