Iv had a 1999 Au Forte since late Febuary. In the last few months a few things have been done to it.. Its nothing special, but since I finally got some decent shots of it, I thought Id share them considering how many young guys on here are starting off with Series I Fortes.
- 17x8' Speedy Spyder Wheels with Hancook Tyres - Twin Exhaust tip - Lowered on King Springs Superlows with GT Gas Struts. - Sony Xplod HU w/mp3.. 12' Xplod Sub.. 250watt Xplod Amp. - Tickford Cold Air Snorkel.

When people criticise the AU falcon they always show a stock white coloured S1. But just shows with neat mods the AU1 Forte can really look great.
as onfire has proved with his Oxford green AU1 Forte |

Nice car BTW. I never used to like that funny green, but now I do - it really suits the shape of the car, if that makes sense.

Looks good ... nice, clean mods there.
I like the style of wheel as well ... suits the AU shape nicely.

Nice machine onfire, the body colored grille helps, my 195kw 4.0L forte (RIP) shown here has that as well, had it painted when I bought it in 98
Your wheels are great, an excellent forte overall
