Here is my Winning Blue 8

I just purchased my 8 a few weeks ago and have finnaly got some decent pics to post. It is a 2004 and only has 7000 miles on it. I havn't found any scratches or anything. Whoever had this car before me took good care of it. I love it Alot!!! I traded in an 06' TC for this bad boy and the TC is S`it compared to the 8.













I just added the Chrome Gas lid and the Aluminum Foot rest today. I will add the brake and gas pedal later.

Let me know what you guys think of the chrome gas tank lid. I am debating taking back. I think it looks good but notl great. If I get chrome rims it I think it will look great. I was going to get the satin but the dealer said that they didn't carry it anymore.

Satin over chrome fuel door, but I prefer body color first. Interesting grill inset.

Thanks for the pics!

I thought it was that as well. $229 at Trussville. A bit pricey even discounted.

It definitely would make an even better match with that Cars window shade.

I returned the chorme gas tank lid to the dealer and got the aluminum brake and gas pedal. I think it looks better with the stock gas tank lid.

Nice car. If you dont mind asking, what price did you pay?

My parents are trying to sell their 8. Its an 05 GT (auto also). Same color as you (Winning blue w/ black leather). They also have only 7k on the clock. Almost the exact same car as you.
