So I received a phone call this morning from WALKER, and it went a little something like this:
KAOS: "Hello...?" WALKER: "Whats up? You at home right now?" KAOS: "Yup just working on the Vee-Dub all day today..." WALKER: "Cool; we'll be there shortly..." About a half hour later, "WALKER" and "ZenAutoworks" (Dave & Sean) pull up to my house... ... I was ready with my camera... lol. (Sorry for the Blair Witch effect, but if you listen carefully, you can hear me giggling like a little school girl... ok, you don't have to listen all that hard. ) This car is a dream come true for me; I can only imagine how the new owner feels. Somebody correct me if Im wrong, but I believe this is the first WRC GT-FOUR in Canada and its owner, WALKER: And David was nice enough to let me have my way with his car... No emblems were hurt in the having of my own way: Random Engine Pics: And now who of you out there can tell me what this is a picture of: The interior is mint; such a great find! I didn't really have much time to take any more pictures; but I did get to go for a quick ride in it... and wow - is it ever weird riding in the passenger seat of a right hand drive vehicle... The battery died on me right away, but you can see the auto-climate control and the huge bulge of a hood that the GT-Four is... lol. Enjoy! ... I'm totally set on buying one now... Thanks Dave & Sean; you totally made my day!! This post has been edited by KAOS: Mar 14, 2009 - 2:24 PM -------------------- |

Hey guys. I am pretty excited to have a GT-FOUR. Finally the 15 year rule hit here in Canada for legal importing of ST205's! I have to thank Sean at Zen Autoworks for helping me get my dream car! He is a great guy and I would highly recommend talking to him if you are seriously thinking of importing a car to Canada.
As for all of you wondering how much it cost, well that is between me and Sean. The cost is definately much more than a ST204 would run you since this is a mint car. It's ST205 WRC with ~60,000 kilometers on it and is extremely clean. To me though the cost was cheap when you compare it to any new vehicle on the market these days and when it's my dream car and I would pick this over anything new. As for that switch it doesn't control the fog lights as those are on the stalk with the headlights. It may be a dimmer for the interior lights, I will have to look into that and see. Thanks everyone for your comments. I guess we will have to see how many viewings and rides it will take for Jeremey (KAOS) to lose his school girl laugh! I also posted a few more pictures in the multimedia section. This post has been edited by WALKER: Mar 16, 2009 - 10:19 AM -------------------- |

You & I both know that the GT-Four is my/our dream car, every since Gran Turismo on the Playstation I've wanted one... Dave; I had a dream that the unknown switch forced the car to transform into a robot. Thats right; I dream about your car too... (BTW, can't see sh!t in that pic you posted... fix the link?) -------------------- |
