It's finally here 2010 Grand Sport

Fresh off the truck, needs a wash/cleaning which will happen this morning.

Damn roof is squeaky/pops so may need to look at some felt tape or something for that. Great oil pressure, trans is good, engine is immaculate.

10,857 miles as delivered.

Very nice, I am sure you will enjoy it. Mine is a 2010. Big improvement in every way over the 2004 I had before it.

Beautiful ride, good luck with it!

To add to the targa noises, put super lube on the seals & put rubber o-rings on the locator pins to tighten up the seal... that's been logged many times on the forum, & it's an easy fix...

Had it shipped from Florida, off to hit a carwash with an undercarriage wash then spray it down. Going to clear bra the front and rear fenders in a week or two.

Congratulations, bought mine Cinco de Mayo 2010 when GM announced the 0/60 financing, best car I've ever owned, almost 80K on it now. It still looks and runs like new. Clear Bra and Apsis splash guards went on first thing, definitely worth the investment.
