    Talking my new car. 1997 Supercharged VS....

    Hey all im only new to this club and only a week ago i became the owner of this kick ass vs. Its a big change from my last car which was a nissan exa. only good points of it were that it had a competition stereo sad to see that go would have loved to hear it in this.

    I managed to pick it up from a person who looked after his cars very well with not even 120 clicks on the odo.
    i managed to get her for $5000.

    i think i did pretty well.
    the paint is immaculate no scratches exept from tiny ones.
    no dings.
    interior is like new no rips or tears and hardly any wear. i have seat covers on atm to protect the leather.

    only mods done to it were tinted windows.
    lowered all round aftermarket stereo.
    have reciepts for a new diff not long ago.

    here are some pics.
    will update when i fix her up.
    im not going to make it look fully sik only some nice rims.
    and do the engine up make her a nice sleeper.
    cheers aaron...










    by the way the cameras date is way of so ignore that its not reallll..

    Be careful as these bonnet protectors get laeves stuck down where they meet the front edge of the bonnet and can quietly rust away without showing any out ward signs.
    If you want to protect the front get your self a car bra for travelling.

    Nice find mate. Very clean and tidy.

    Just some nice rims and lowered and you're good!

    And car-bras look gay. The shield thats on there looks alright. Maybe just make sure you get the leaves out. But it would look better without it though........

    Internationals are a good looking wheel.
    The 18 inter's are copies but if made by ROH should be ok.
    ROH made the original holden 17 internationals.
