Default Just bought me a car

Hey all,
Im pretty new here, just informing yous all of my new ride, bought it today, but have to wait untill friday to get it....ohhh so long. After a long search and trying to decide between el fairmont ghia or a ef/el xr6, ive goten meself a xr, easy decision in the end

95 EF XR6
- usual xr specs
- factory bodykit
Navy Blue (with body coloured pinstripe, instead of the regular red issue)
Auto
Polished 16" Tickfords
Lowered
2.5" Exhaust
Modified Air Induction, not sure of details yet.. + i also get original tickford setup as well

The car is straight as a die, next to no paint defects, previously owned by a mechanic as well. The best thing (apart from price) was its only done a mere 115000km, also come with car bra too. Sorry no pics yet, as i aint picked it up yet, will post pics asap.
All in all, im very happy as this for my first car, me being 19.
Michael

sounds like a beauty
i'm a big fan of the colour coded body moulding over the red so it should look real nice
congrats on the purchase!

Congrats tempest! Look forward to seeing some pic's when you get her.
I have to agree the body coloured pinstriping would look ultimately better than the red.
...and what a great car to have for a first
