Congratulations, blunierdr! Your perfectly slick '87 GTA is TGO's May 2018 Car of the Month.

I really like everything about this build from specs to color. Although the sum of it's parts reads like a fairly straight forward build, as far as impact, I'd say this car is punching way above it's weight class. Congratulations on a super sexy, awesome car.

f-ing HATE Windows 10. I'll fix this ASAP. Sorry.

Congratulations, blunierdr, and all the other nominees this month. All are great looking 3rd Gens.

Thank you to everyone, I appreciate all the kind words. I am exited yet humbled to have my car be recognized as May Car of the Month. There are many impressive cars on this site that have been inspiration for me to build my car the way it is, I hope mine can spark some imagination and passion for others.
