Villa...I just cant picture you in a Gt Cruiser.....

Sweet car either way. Do you still have the neon?

J-Villa · Post by **J-Villa** » Fri Dec 19, 2008 3:49 pm

i like pt's...my dad has two...one of which since 01...

Nope got rid of that car. Needed so much work on it lol. They gave me what i owed on it.

And this is alot cheaper srt-4 for me. My insurance went DOWN 23 bucks a month!

Nice. My girlfriend is getting a moded PT GT. They're supposedly pretty slow but it would be a nice upgrade from the neon

5k miles is ridiculous...was it a showroom car or something?

MyNeonSaysHi · Post by **MyNeonSaysHi** » Fri Dec 19, 2008 4:39 pm

Very nice! What kind of deal did you get on it. Dealership or private owner?

J-Villa · Post by **J-Villa** » Fri Dec 19, 2008 9:55 pm

One rich owner. Traded the pt, and a harley in for a 08 mustang bullit? And the guy just never drove it. Kept it in the garage.

The price was good. Monthly payments barely went up.

Just got home from driving it. It's nice to drive.

So crazy, I just saw that same color combo today on my way to work.

Got any plans for it?

Woah! I just realized it only has 5k miles on it!!!

Take some more pictures... That picture you provided at your place?

J-Villa · Post by **J-Villa** » Sat Dec 20, 2008 12:40 am

No that was at the dealer. After we drove it, we put it in the garage. it was a real rainy day today.

Yea i wanna get more pics lol. want a new sig.

First thing i am doing is all new speakers lol. Is that a mod?

Bag it. Nice ride Justin!

MyNeonSaysHi · Post by **MyNeonSaysHi** » Sat Dec 20, 2008 10:45 am

Going to do a sound system? Whats wrong with the stock speakers? It is "fully loaded"

J-Villa · Post by **J-Villa** » Sat Dec 20, 2008 11:20 am

Fully loaded as in every single option for the car.(i'm pretty sure) I have the $30k window sticker from when the guy purchased the car new.

But i def want more sound out of these speakers. Just gonna get new door speakers probably for now. I wanna get a blow off valve, but i don't want the blue rice plate. haha Turbo timer possibly. Not overly crazy about the chrome wheels.

that interior looks brand new!!

id drop it, add rims that look stockish but with style, downpipe with cut out, turbo timer, BOV, 3" CAI, AWG and stage 1. it would be a sleeper.

J-Villa · Post by **J-Villa** » Mon Dec 22, 2008 1:27 am

loving this car so far...

^^ I'd just get rid of those ugly rubber floor mats!

J-Villa · Post by **J-Villa** » Mon Dec 22, 2008 1:04 pm

what?! rubber is awesome. esp since the weather season. Don't have to worry about staining and ruining the mats.

Very sweet find. Sorry to see that you left the Neon behind, but that's just me. My wife has a 05', and she absolutely loves hers. I'm very happy for you and I wish you all the best.

Enjoy it!

hul kogan · Post by **hul kogan** » Mon Dec 22, 2008 1:55 pm

sweet! i actually like it. can't wait to see you throw some mods at it.

Post by **jonnymopar** » Mon Dec 22, 2008 2:25 pm

Nice grab! Can't wait to see this in July!

Tam · Post by **Tam** » Mon Dec 22, 2008 4:59 pm

OMG I was about to get mad when I thought you were getting a viper! haha.

That PT looks like one that someone on this forum has, some name like 2000deepamysethneon or something.

Does the interior dash pieces match the exterior stock or was that painted?

Danteneon · Post by **Danteneon** » Mon Dec 22, 2008 5:17 pm

They came with the painted dash pieces stock, and IIRC they should be the same color as the outside.

Nice find man

MyNeonSaysHi · Post by **MyNeonSaysHi** » Mon Dec 22, 2008 5:26 pm

A drop and paint the stockers black and it will be baller. Right now its not too shabby. Previous owner must of like hardly ever drove it.

Post by **jonnymopar** » Mon Dec 22, 2008 10:01 pm

No way man, don't touch those wheels. Those are pretty rare, according to BlackRoseRacing.

J-Villa · Post by **J-Villa** » Tue Dec 23, 2008 2:46 am

Thanks for the compliments!

i saw a pt exactly line mine slammed on a forum. Makes me wanna keep my wheels and do the same.

Cabbs · Post by **Cabbs** » Tue Dec 23, 2008 3:30 am

Definitely needs to be lowered, makes any car look much better. I wouldn't do a thing to the outside, it looks good as it is. Keep it sleeper.

Post by **Canada** » Tue Dec 23, 2008 5:50 pm

BAG IT!

J-Villa · Post by **J-Villa** » Wed Dec 24, 2008 2:59 am

it would look 10x better lowered....blah wish i had money.

INVUJerry · Post by **INVUJerry** » Wed Dec 24, 2008 7:51 pm

Stage 1, waste gate controller, 3" turbo back, it'd be quick.

Or leave it and keep a warranty, it's whatev.

Nice car man, I want a PT GT pretty bad.

Adam G · Post by **Adam G** » Wed Dec 24, 2008 7:51 pm

guys this car looks 10x better in person

Chibits12 · Post by **Chibits12** » Thu Dec 25, 2008 12:32 am

That car looks mint

Congrats on the find man!

I bet you like the elevated seating too, you can see a whole lot more than being close on the ground.

I'd leave the car the way it is, that's a sweet looking ride.

J-Villa · Post by **J-Villa** » Thu Dec 25, 2008 12:50 am

Yea that's a big thing i like about the car. The higher seating. I was aleady used to it with driving my dad's cruiser. He has a 01 5spd and a 08 auto. I wish the car itself was lower to the ground lol. It does kind of drive like a mini van. Until i spool that turbo up, then it's a little different.

But i am very please with the car so far. No regrets really. I just need to stay out of boost to get better mpg. LOL
