Welcome to GenVibe! Great looking '10 GT you've got there ! Do you have any plans for mods to it?I see you're from Port Washington... do you ever see Dustin Diamond (Screech) around ? What about Frank and Carol Lambert (Step By Step) ? You should check out the WI GM-Tuners site. It's a really great group of people and it'd be great if you could make it out to some meets. I'd love to have another Vibe GT owner to take pictures with .

Did that 3rd day I had it.Screech lives about 4-5 blocks from us, never seen him in person. "Step by step" was never even in town, not to even see what the town looks like as the Holyweird version of Port Washington had nothing common with the real thing except for being on lake Michigan.

I do actually consider de-badging a mod ! I did it to mine not too long after I got it. That's hysterical that Sreech lives so close to you !Yeah, you gotta love the opening credits of Step By Step with the roller coaster right next to the lake ! I took a little road trip to Port Washington last fall to go to the one big park right on the lake with my mom, my cousin and her daughter. There was a lady at the park and we asked her about Screech and Frank and Carol Lambert . She said she saw Screech at Sentry one time and that he goes to the fish fry, but she had no clue who Frank and Carol Lambert were . I am very pleased that you are up to date with your Port Washington pop culture references !Enjoy your new GT! If I ever head up to that area again, we should meet up and take some pictures by the lake .

I like the color myself, it somewhat matches the accent color in the wheels. Originally I was looking for a Steel Blue Metallic, but had no luck finding one w/o 30+ thousand miles on the clock.

I love my Liquid Platinum Metallic GT, but I kind of wish I would have gotten the same color as yours for something different (my previous two cars were silver).
