Hello all, I have been looking for a sho or a G8 for the last month or two and finally found a good deal on one a couple hours south of me in Portland. Picked it up 2 weeks ago. So far I'm loving it! Ordered some H&R springs that just showed up yesterday. Will get those on this weekend. Also was able to make it out to the local track for a test and tune this last weekend. Pretty cool going to the track with the temp dealer plates still on the car haha!
The car is completely stock non pp and was able to crack off a 13.7 on my first pass leaving at idle. the second pass I tried to launch but didn't get a good launch and ran a 13.9 at 101 mph. If it wasn't so bust and I was able to make a few more passes I feel I could of gotten a 13.5 pass.  Anyway, here a  few shots of the car.

I was in the right lane each pass. On the 13.7 pass my mph wasn't correct. I painted the wheels and the rear chrome stripping on the trunk and the front grille and side reflectors in front of the door.

Welcome indeed! :hi:

Always good to a have :newbie: sign up!

Fond of your color choice(s) and looks like your SHO can eerily pass off as my sister vehicle, albeit less mods.

Many years of wonderful enjoyment with your EB ride, and enjoy the atmosphere here on EBPF.

Certainly an eclectic bunch to say the least! :ok:

You ever been out to Griot's Garage on Friday nights? It would be cool to park a bunch of SHO's together next to the 300's and the Chargers!!
