    The new kid

    Hey i just wanted to post something since i had nothing else to do.

    My car. its a 2.4L 2001Model Galant ES imported from the US to Iceland in 2004 its got about 115000miles on it. what i have done to it so far is i put alot of blue LED lights on it since i got 10 meters of LED's for xmas i have only used about one meter of it so i plan on puting more alot more:P the cops pulled me over one time for "resembling a cop car" and askd me to get it checked i got it checked and the man at the station sad it was fine so i lawyerd the cops and didnt have to pay a fine :D.

    its my second car. my first car was an Isuzu Trooper 3.0 Diesel since i was always fixing something on that car and it was spending about 20L/100km my dad told me to sell it. i traded it even for this galant. well the guy actualy gave me about 20 bucks for gas. since i was such a good sells man:D

    Sad Fact when i got the car it was almost scratch free except the hood and the rear bumper. at about the 3rd week of owning the car i noticed it had been keyed and the roof was scratched to shit, looked like someone took a piece of a xmas tree and dragged it across the roof

    future planed; well they aren't much i really want to paint the car black and blood dark read. the top half would be black(hood, roof and trunk) and the rest would be dark blood read. i also want to make it a manual but i think that is only if a get the parts for free or next to free.

    the EVAP system is bugging me at the moment i have code P0441. i have checked the purge solinode and the EGR valve both are fine i have to check the canister think near the fuel tank next.

    hope you guys understood everything i wrote (English is my second language so give me a break.) i also realize this is along read wasn't suppose to be like the but what the hell :D

    Welcome, hope all goes well, by chance did the gas cap get left off?

    What matters is if you like your car. Not if some random guy likes it but if you realy like it. Change the car you want to and don't make anyone else tell you what looks good or not.

    But the undercover cops here in iceland atleast have blue led in the grill so I can see why the cops would pull you over for copying them since it's ilegal to copy or have any similer to them.
