Default New '06 GT owner- A question...

Hello, I just traded my '05 WRX STi for a Legend Lime 06 GT. I was wondering if anyone had any pics of a LL GT with stripes on it? What color stripes does everyone think would look best?
Also are these motors really tight for the first few hundred miles? Seems really tight, not too willing to rev yet.
Thanks for the input.

I dont have pics, but a LL white Silver Stripes is running around here, and I think it looks great!! I've seen one with white stripers too, but I like the silver a lot more. These motors are sensitive, but not too bad. Most people blow there engines w/ mods before the break in technique effects them, but I'm not saying go out and floor it either...I plan to install a new motor w/ forged internals, so I'm not too concerned w/ break in technique...but I'm nice to it.

LL w/ Silver Stripes gets my final vote

I like the silver stripe too, however, i dont think it will work on my vert with a black top so I am gonna get the black ones. What do you think?

Yeah, I think the black stripes would look better too. I don't know how silver stripes would look on a lime mustang with black convertible top. I think it would look strange. The black will also look better because they have more contrast with the lime paint. Now all you have to do is decide what size or style of stripes you want.
