My 2001 Catera Sport with a few extras.
« on: 15 March 2008, 19:29:08 »
Thought I'd post a couple shots of my Catera Sport. The first is my Cat as I bought her. The second is her as she looks today. I have a body kit waiting to be added but I'll wait until summer when the temps are right for painting.

Bone stock down in sunny Florida where I bought her.



Wearing her mesh grille with Cadillac Wreath & Crest, and Sport Edition F5 wheels.

Your car looks very good, I much prefer the black grille.

Elvin,

What's the URL to the full size version of the thumbnail of that Orange Omega in your avatar?

Thanks

Nathan

I'm not sure. I picked a random thumbnail. It's the Steinmetz Catera concept car. If you Google it a few choices. This is a nice one.

Which one, the first or second? The first was taken in Tampa, Florida. All the greenery is nice but the heat and humidity are suffocating. I found the car online and, needing a vacation, I flew down to buy it if it checked out. After a new heater bypass valve, and oil change, and new tires I drove 1200 miles back home to Buffalo, New York. That's where the second picture was taken. The snow on the ground is just a small sample of what we usually get. Be careful what you wish for.

Thanks for the nice words. You can see the difference the spacers make from that small picture? Wow. My eyes used to be that good but not for a long time now.

Unfortunately, my car doesn't look quite as nice today. While following an electrical contractor's truck an orange traffic cone chose that instant to fly off and hit my car, smashing the left headlight and scuffing the hood. The owner is paying for the damage but I'm still not a happy camper. Now I'm afraid the new headlight will look different from the older one. I polished it last year but I know it won't ever look as good as the new one, no matter how much I polish it.

Nice motor Elvin :)

I have a couple of friends in Buffalo :)  A nice part of the world!  The wheels really suit the car, good choice :y

It is sad to hear about the traffic cone, but I am sure it will look alright :)
