Well i've put my name down and paid the deposit on my first vette and i should be able to pick her up next weekend!!! Gotta admit i'm really excited, like Christmas again

I got mine through blackzr, he's on this forum.
As std, I believe 2 out of the 4 tips work, but me being me, I've got all 4 making noise!
