Ok, it's done... I have sold my car and now own a 2002 TransAm 6spd.. This one came right off the truck, still had the plastic cover on the paint and the foam bumpers. It's reallllllll nice... I got it for 23,500...

Hammer · 08-27-2002, 04:07 PM

Well,
I'm sure I speak for everyone that we're sorry to see you go...
Why didn't you try a 99+ GT before jumping off into the dark side?

Oh well, just be sure to tell your LS1 buddies to watch out for a yellow 98 GT if they're ever in Dallas....

98SteedaGT · 08-27-2002, 04:29 PM

Thanks Hammer...

I would have, but I have always wanted a car with T-Tops and a 6-spd... trust me, I'm not going to be Joe Blow LS1 driver and say that I can spank every stang I see.. I prob won't even mod or race this car, don't want to screw with the warranty.... I'll still remember my roots in the Ford world.. Thanks for all your help guys, I know I wasn't here long.. who knows, maybe someone in your area will end up with my car, then you can have the pleasure of whooping up on him...

95mustanggt · 08-27-2002, 05:11 PM

That's too bad. The Trans Am's are really nice cars, once you get over the build quality issue. But atleast you have a warranty. I agree T-tops are nice, so is the 6 speed.

You know there are several other LS1 owners here, you can still stay, we aren't going to hate you!

Heck, I don't know him and I hate him already!! You rotten turncoat!! just kidding, good luck, ( ya right! )

91LX2Bfast · 08-28-2002, 10:08 PM

Did you trade in your car with all the mods on it (just curious?)
You owe it to yourself to get that T/A to the track and see what that nasty LS1 runs. Once you do run it, swing back in and tell us how ya did.
Ohh yea, throw on a Borla cat back. It just looks and sounds so damn good on those F-bodies. And while your at it, add a raised intake lid with a K&N. That stuff won't void your warranty and will add a number of pony's for only a little money. Good Luck.

98SteedaGT · 08-29-2002, 09:18 AM

Yeah, everything went with it. I didn't feel like taking parts off of it, it was hell trying to get them to give me a decent amount of money for it as it was... 1998 w/ 96K miles on it doesn't sell to well down here to a dealer. I have already looked at SLP's website and seen their RamAir H.O hood and CatBack systems.. but, I need to make a few payments on this car before I jump off and start modding it.. I just hit the 300mi mark on the Odometer, and am still getting used to the M6 on it. I cut a mean little scratch yesterday (didnt mean to), typical genious drivers in this area.. Someone cut in front of me so I had to stick and move, and I think I moved a little too much... I have already have 2 challenges in this car.. the first one was a joke... Some kids in a Dodge Dakota (not R/T) with mud tires challenged me one night about 11pm.. Then last night a Civic with a fart can wanted to play on the highway... No racing for me yet...

So does this mean you're staying with us??? Even though you don't have a stang, atleast you don't have a honda.

98SteedaGT · 08-29-2002, 10:59 AM

I will prob still read the board, I don't know how much posting I will do though..

SteveGT · 08-29-2002, 03:51 PM

Hey Steeda, I know how you feel about the 98. I have one myself, and I've saved up about $10 k for a down payment on a 01' plus Cobra and a supercharger. I've had just about enough of my 98 as well. Sorry to see you go, even though I don't post a lot I'm here every day and it sucks to see a fellow 98er go.
