Re: Welcome to my Mid-Life Crisis!

Beautiful up-grades! What brand of exhaust tips? I see the Ken Carr dealer logo, we must be neighbors. I live in Whitehall. I'm one of the old guys your friends kidded you about, but no one who drives a 3.6 CTS is old. I even look younger in the rear view mirror.

Hey, you guys. I drive an '07 CTS and I'll be 81 years old next November. It is a white diamond color. I love it and so do all my friends.

Almost 2 years ago, I purchased my 06 Red Jewel 3.6L CTS w/ 6-Speed Manual Trans. I took a bunch of crap from my friends and coworkers about " driving an old man's car" This is how the car looked as of last week:





This past week, I turned 40. Needless to say I've never felt my age, but after a few mods to the "old man's CTS", I have a bunch of people asking me if I'm going thru a mid-life crisis.

Just installed:
  • 18" Zinik Z5 Wheels with 245/45x18 General UHP's
  • Rear Deck Spoiler
  • Stainless Exhaust Tips






I just tell them they wouldn't understand!!!

The V-Grill and clear fogs are on the way. The drilled and slotted rotors will be ordered as soon as the brakes are gone. Future pics to come.
i used to have the same rims


time for a throwback pic!!!!!!!!! Check the date


and then transformed !!!!
