Congratulations to VegasNate!!

First off, thanks everyone who voted. Not just for me but for all participants. Congrats to all the other monthly winners in the running too. I've had my G8 since July of 2008 which means I've pretty much been here since the beginning.

Not bad for an amatuer :wink2::stickpoke:

Congrats!

Wow, what a laundry list there... I think you forgot a few :wink2:

Having ridden personally in this car, I can surely tell you that this is an excellent representation of an awesome build with special attention to detail, thinking "outside the box", and a really unique combination of mods and imported-direct-from-Australia components.

Well earned, Nate. Well earned!

 

[brad02ss]

Congrats! That's a hell of a car, I can't wait to see how the CTS-V dash conversion works out.

Great ride...

Nate has probably put more time (and money) in his g8 than most of us combined. He definitely deserves the title.

HOWEVER: i want to see more pics of the car, i'm sure everyone does, but then maybe i don't know where to find them. Nate please we all envy your car hook us up with some pics!

by the way add holden hood to the list of ext. mods.
