So after selling my 98 GT-S sometime in July...I decided to seek out my dream car! Here's a little story of my adventure to see a GT-Four, up front and in person, for the very first time...

Dragged two buddies along for the journey. We planned for the 12:30pm sailing at the horseshoe bay terminal in BC, to get to Nanaimo on Vancouver Island. Turns out the sailing was full and we waited 3 hours for the next sailing. After 1.5 hrs on the ferry we hauled a** 150km north of Nanaimo to Campbell River (keep in mind the last sailing home is 9pm). Finally arriving at the place we took a look at the car, took it for a spin and worked out the payment details.
The pro: engine is still running strong even with meerly 103,000kms
The cons: various surface rust here and there
The solution: leave the car there, get all the surface rust sanded out and get a full paintjob (at my cost)... then ship it to me

Now, I'm just waiting for it to arrive!....time for some teaser pics!

is by any chance this the same car?

Nammer's car has white raiser blocks and the one in that video has black raiser blocks. They do look similar though. But they have the same rear lip and rear side window tint.. Looks like that could be the one.

Nammer, nice buy

Indeed it is. I got them to paint the raiser blocks white and leave the lettering black when they gave the car a fresh coat of paint and sanded out some surface rust. =D Thank!

Can you all feel the vibe? At least we are that much closer to getting a gt-4 or at least seeing one with binoculars over the canadian border.

Oh i can feel the vibe...it arrived today..but my insurance broker doesn't work on sunday and i promised i'd get my insurance from her....so i went down to the docks to take a look at it...take my key (just in case the workers can't resist the temptation)....started her up and she roared...the blitz muffler has a nice sound to it....all that's missing is a BOV so i can hear the sexy PSSshhhhh
