nice price and low k's. sounds like a good deal.

**BeastVS** · 12-07-2006, 02:23 PM

I got an nrma inspection on the car today, turns out it was a good buy, the only thing they found was that my number plate lights need new globes oh and like alot of VS's the passanger airbag cover is lifting but the nrma fellow told us a cheap way of fixing it. Just keeping you guys updated. I will probably be getting it on saturday and if its not to dark i will put sum pictures up.
: )

**Patrio7** · 14-07-2006, 12:27 PM

i got my exec for $8000 after finance last year, 96, 216,000 when i got it.
but she goes nicely

**BeastVS** · 14-07-2006, 11:28 PM

**fuel_within** · 17-07-2006, 09:08 PM

Sweet as dude, we can't wait to see it.
Keep us posted mate.

**BeastVS** · 18-07-2006, 05:05 PM

Ok well this is the only photo i have because it started to get dark and my camera died, so sorry i no its a bit dark but you can still kinda see my baby. I have had her since saturday and i havent found anything wrong with it. Let me no what you guys think if it was a good buy or not.

**1991_Vn2nV** · 18-07-2006, 05:24 PM

Looks good man, great value ... first mod is lower her!

**BeastVS** · 18-07-2006, 05:50 PM

i agree man it needs lowering, i should be getting 16" AusCar rims off my bro's car soon they are sitting on falken tyres. I no they arnt huge rims but i cant afford any atm and my bro is being very generous. Once i get the rims i might save up a bit and lower her. i will see if i can track down a pic of the rims to show you guys.
EDIT: Ok here we go these are the rims, i cut them of a picture of my brothers VT and my car is the same colour so it will look pretty much the same as this. http://img91.imageshack.us/img91/841...2beminefl5.jpg

**fuel_within** · 18-07-2006, 06:54 PM

NICE! I was lookin for that colour for my VS in manual but couldn't find one so i had to settle for Genesis Blue... Anyway... This will look sweet de-badged, lowered, nice wheels and some tints! It'll get there pal!!!
Keep us posted on new mods!

**BeastVS** · 18-07-2006, 07:03 PM

Thanks i like the car and im with you fuel i love the colour i was originally on the look out for a white one and then i saw this one and said i want it. The paint is awsome on this car it has like one 2cm scratch that can be touched up besides that it is perfect. And i will keep you guys posted on the mods feel free to post any more comments though.

**MrFeelgood** · 18-07-2006, 07:18 PM

Looks sweet dude, rims and springs is all it takes to make a ride start saving and welcome to commodore land.

**BeastVS** · 18-07-2006, 10:42 PM

hey guys i was just wondering should i take the mudflaps off, i will take them off when i get my bro's rims but do you think i should take them of now or wait until i get the rims. Because i think they look a bit goofy

**PaRaDoX** · 19-07-2006, 08:37 AM

wow man nice buy for cheap, 108 is NOTHING lol

take them off dude, unless your goin in muddly places they make funny noises :P
has she got IRS? Dump her, DUMP HER DUMP HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

lol my mate put his 97VS on super lows looks pretty fat, you dont need to do much to the body of these cars to make em look hot,

start the modding

**BeastVS** · 19-07-2006, 12:07 PM

ummm whats IRS lol sorry im a noob. the only thing i can think of would be Independant rear suspension and if thats what your asking then yeah it has that lol.
Anyway here is a pic taken in the day its much better than the other one

**1991_Vn2nV** · 19-07-2006, 01:59 PM

yeah IRS = Independant Rear Suspension, good for ride quality, not as good for handling.

That pics much nicer man. Dumped with some 18's it'd look awesome

**BeastVS** · 19-07-2006, 04:37 PM

ok cool and yeh that picture is alot better because it wasnt as dark and my camera didnt die. And i plan to lower it when my funds allow and same with bigger rims. but until then i will be putting my brothers old rims on as pictured above. Keep the comments coming guys i appriciate both positive and negative feedback

**fuel_within** · 20-07-2006, 08:00 AM

Hey, de-badge it except the lion (look in forums if you're unsure how to do it) and put chrome pin-stripping round the side door moulds are where the grey part is. It'll look hot as! I'll give u a link to my ride as i have done the same thing.
Keep us posted . . .
