yeah, that has to be one of the sweetest GTA's I've seen. Those wheels really look good on there too. Also agree with theSteve. The rock quarry makes for an interesting shot. I'm gonna have to scope out our local gravel pits!

Thanks for the compliments guys! I had chosen the gravel pits because it goes well w/ the color of the car! I didn't want any backround colors catching your attention instead of the car! And yes that is a Monte Carlo SS sitting next to me!

I always thought those Montes had some neat Nascar style to them, but looking at that overhead pic with them together, it sure doesn't hold a candle to the styling of the GTA.

Great shot though!

flynlow89- that would look AWESOME!!! I'd change the color of the paint a little tho. Maybe it's just the pic but I'd do a little less silver and a little more tan for that car- not much, just a little. JMHO.

i dont think they are discontinued. These are the new models. the ones you are thinking of are the predacessors.

Correct; Eagle had probably the cheapest chrome 18's for a long time (the Cobra style ones), and now they've replaced them with these far nicer Lightning looking ones I think the newer lones look 10x better than the old ones. Damn fine car, too - at least it's still in the TGO fam

i love it :-). gotta see it in person sometime soon! It really makes me anxious to get the rest of my car painted Platinum to match the engine compartment . Flyinlow, I think it'd look great and be very fitting if you were to paint your 95 Formula the same color as the GTA. Hopefully in a year or so everyone will see how the Bright Platinum Metallic looks on an 84 TA :lala:
