    A sad day. Although I would like one of those cars as a winter car. Fun in the snow, but not on the ice.

      You don't sound weird. I feel the same way when selling a car. It becomes part of your life. Good luck with the new ride.

        Feeling like you've betrayed your F-body might sound queer, but at least you're

          That must have been rough. I'm only 20 right now, haven't had much experience with buying/selling cars yet. First car was a 96 escort wagon which I blew the tranny on (neutral drops, making jumps, etc... ) and I was happy to see that pile leave me. Costed next to nothing, so it really didn't bother me.

          My first car that I actually bought from a dealer and everything is my t/a. Hopefully I won't have to witness me selling her...at least not anytime soon I hope.

          Congrats on the new purchase. At least you stayed with something nice and fast...definitely a lot faster than your LT1. AWD is definitely a plus in the winter too.

          Good luck with your new ride!

              Take that big 16G and upgrade to a 20G compressor side and get that thing into the 11's. Since you have the supporting mods.

                Sweet car, I see 1gs at the track all the time and they usually runs 10s. Hope it's not your DD though because once you get those things under 13s they tend to break down often. (p.s. beware of crankwalk)
