My journey.
Nadia pic but there's the 210
Ive had a b210 all nodded and still got it. Got a 90 TT Z in 96. Still got that too. In 96 or 97 i happenedo visit Miami and went ti.the auto show.
At the threshold into the arena was a GS on display placed j st before you walk in. It was new and coming. It liked great . Sort of class fast like an 80s AMG 500. But i knew ot would never come to Trinidad. Bit in about 2002 they seeped on as used hap imports. I actually had a friend ask me to.get him a Z like my TT and explained they practicality of the turbo GS over the Z since he wanted speed.
That was about 2002. It costvat the time about twice what I paid for my Z so i would have to.wait till it went down or i became more prosperous. I did the latter and searched to neat death frustration to get someone to sell me one locally as they were now past the Sheldon to import directly. I bought a new Hilux which....i still have. Then since 2009 -2017 I searched until i finally got an original 100k km Aristo with Nav and 2jzgte.
Bought staggered 19s. Pioneer Edin installed. Got a Borg warner and all the speed stuff almost ready to.install. wanna keep it tranny friendly so about 400Hp. Tnkering with the stance with some Twins soon. Yes ill spend money. But ill have fun at half the price of a new Civic. So some Kickers are coming for the sound But in the end i will keep that one too. Not a hoarder but i cant let a great car go. And the one my friend got. He still has it even one 3.5camry later and now a Uk Ex200t FSport. I tried him over the years but he never wanted to sell.
so long story but the Miami international auto show of 97 or 98:-)

Okay I’m not 100% sure if he’s on here or not but his ig name : oz_430. Way back I’m talking back in 2013 when I had E46. I always had my eyes on 2nd gen GS I never thought of knowing one until 2 years ago. I bought it as a daily for work. Which now ended up being unable to driven daily lol. Anyways after seeing oz_430 made me fell in love more with my GS, his build motivates me to finish my build. Here’s few pics of his car.
