Default Finally did it...

Well guys, after using the Monte as my daily driver for the last eight years and putting over 100k on it myself I finally sold it. This was almost a month ago now, I've also sold my 944 in that time which leaves me with the racecar, daily driving that got a little old so I picked up the '98 Sierra that my parents got new back in the day.

Anyway, for those of you that wouldn't recognize my car here's some highlight style photos.

Took it on a 1000 mile roadtrip to make sure it was reliable.

Sorry to hear you sold it...
It was definitely a 1 of a kind looking Monte...
I especially like the 5 spoke mags...

What kind and size were they?
I really think theyd look great on my 5th gen!

Just cause you sold your Monte doesn't mean your no longer part of the MCF Family!
Considering you've been with us since 2007.

It was time, I'd always told myself that I'd drive it forever being my first car and all. I grew bored with it and would rather put the money into something else.

They're 18" Zinik z24 wheels. The clear coat was starting to fail, but after five years on a bare machined surface there isn't much you can do to get clear to stick.

I've got parts all over the place waiting to go in the Mitsubishi, here are what will soon be my new favorite wheels...

I ran that high 13 second quarter with stock boost (~7-9lbs) these will hold 20+ to redline after I get the fuel system to dump a bit more fuel.
