New car?

**agtblank** · 09-11-2010, 12:47 AM

I've been away from the 3s community for quite a while, but still kept contact with a few members. Some may remember me from about 10 years ago. Anyway, I am in the Air Force and currently deployed to 120° weather and more sun and dust than anyone could want.

Anyway,
When I get back to Germany and the autobahns, I am considering a new purchase... I saw this for sale and we'll see what happens if it's still there when I get back. My only question is... it's a J-Spec car, registered in the UK, and will be registered in the military system in Germany... what are the chances of being able to have it shipped home?

Looks insanely clean.

I love it.

Although, I don't get why there is cloth interior. O.o

because it's a real GTO... the real ones were an SL with AWD and TT. Notice the non-active aero as well. Also manual climate control and no AWS, etc etc

GTO MR, yummy! I love the cleanliness!

Ive always wondered, on a RHD car, is 1st still in the upper left or does it move it to the upper right?

But don't the SLs have the automatic climate control? Mine does... and it has leather. I'm sure the leather is an option, but I thought the SLs had the automatic climate control. Maybe I'll have to double check my window sticker.

. Although, I don't know if you want my fronts, but my rears are still nice. eww RHD blah

holy crap, are you who I think you are? lol

Chances are slim to none on being able to bring it into the US. You may be able to bring it through Canada... it's a real slim chance, and a total crapshoot though.
