    Checked the oil.
    Changed my cabin filter.
    Checked the air in the tires. Left front was a little low.
    Vacuumed it.
    Told her that as soon as the weather breaks and it warms up, I promise to detail her.

    Took it for a blast.

    Took her out of the garage for the first time this year.
    Also went over all the suspension parts for an early spring install session, found a few odds and ends that need to be acquired.

    Started the long process of cleaning the car after last weekend's track session. Tonight was an interior vacuum and carpet shampoo. This week I'll change the oil, since I pushed the current stuff hard on track. Next weekend is supposed to be gorgeous, in the high 50's on Saturday, low 60's on Sunday. So I hope to give it a wash on Saturday, then clean and treat the leather, then give it a good wax with Adams Americana.

    Nice car. I admin g6performance.com. Have him register and check it out. First car I bought myself, and first car that got me into modding.

    That photo is the GXP with the "Street Package". Has the hammerhead spoiler and side skirts. No street package, no spoiler or side skirts. The front is ugly. Just about every GXP owner doesn't like the GXP's front buck tooth grill.

    Done right G6's can be nice daily cars. My old GTP..






    Also. Today vacuumed out the interior, leather cleaner, cleaned and wiped all surfaces. Reapplied RainX. Was going to rinse it off with power washer but then it started to snow. Bleh.

    Yep, has whaletail. Also has the buckteeth front. I remember seeing one of them 4+ years ago and was wondering what the GM designer was smoking when they designed the grills. The tail is not to bad in person and the buckteeth are covered by the plate holder in this case. Still, a nice car. They have a steering thunk to fix before we sign any paper.
