    Need an honest opinion

    To make a long story short, I currently am attending WyoTech. My grades have put me in the top 2% of the school, and my attendance is perfect. I currently am in the Mercedes and BMW programs at school. When I graduate, hopefully, I should have a job at one of these places. If this works out, I should be making some nice money out of school. Here's the dilemma...

    What muscle car to buy????

    I plan on having some projects, but I do not want to wait 3 years to build my own car perfectly. I do plan on buying either an all original or fully restored car with lower miles from one of the classic car dealerships here around Chicago. I've already talked with reps from both companies, and based off of how much they have payed grads just out of school, and the fact that I already have great credit, I figure that I can probably go up to the 30K range.

    I absolutely cannot decide what to get. Who better to ask than some people who obviously have great taste in cars

    What I'm leaning towards

    '70 cuda (hahahahahaha...if I find one under 150k ill be surprised)
    76 t/a
    69 or 73 camaro
    Possibly a grand national, gnx if im luckly
    possibly an 89 TTA
    late 60's buick gsx
    70 chevelle
    69 gto
    69 charger
    70 or 71 challenger...PURPLE PLUM CRAZY!!!!!

    Any more ideas...what do you guys think.

    I'm already starting the search

                  Ahhhh! I'm trying to buy a car and you have to make me feel more adult like and responsible with your stock remarks!

                  I actually do plan on investing after I save up some extra $$$...I just need to be more educated on the market before I make any decisions.

                  HAHAHAHAHA....that's awesome.

                  The 442 was another I had in mind, but those cars I listed were all pretty much cars I've drooled over since I was in diapers.

                  The early 2nd gen t/a's are also good.

                  Just more and more thinking
