    Default Bought a VZ Executive.

    Hi Guys,

    Ive been reading the forums for a few weeks now and i figured I should post about my recent buy of a '05 VZ Executive. I absolutely love it.

    I bought it from Manheim Fowles for $12,750. Its an ex cop car and it had done just over 55,000 ks when I bought it. Its real nice throughout the car and ive got a few plans for it. Looking at a set of rims and a shift kit at the moment.

    Anyway heres a picture. It is registered now. Tell me what you think, and if you have any suggestions on shift kits I'd love to hear them.

    Just strengthen it up really. Ill probably turbo or supercharge it when i can legally.

    I also think that since its a ex-cop car that it'll have a different chip in it. Im not sure if this is a performance chip or anything but it'd be good to find out.
