Bought my first car!

[Need4Speed]

1997 Pontiac Trans AM WS6

I'm estatic right now, words cant describe how I feel... The car is beautiful! Not to mention my 21st birthday is in 10 days.

PS,

I love black! Thats a beautiful car man, congrats! I remeber when i first got mine. I wish you the best of luck with it. Just wait until you feel the need to mod haha. Congrats

[Need4Speed]

Thanks for the reply's!


Yea, the mods... I'm already thinking that, unfortunatly my pockets will be running on empty near the end of this purchase

However, it already has a magnaflow exhaust, and a stereo system. So, some of the minor stuff is out of the way. I'm thinking headers, superchargers, but thats all for the future.

Congrats and welcome. You have now moved into the dark side (I don't know what that means, but for those of us with black cars it sounds appropriate) Have fun and be safe.

285 HP of muscle.

P.S. I luv the color....and am envious of the WS6 a little bit.

Beautiful man. Gotta love them black t/a's

Enjoy it, they're a blast to own. Wait 'til the mod bug really hits you...it can be the best and worst thing ever....but always best in the end

Congrats and welcome to the F-body brotherhood. As a fellow owner of a black WS6, I don't have to tell you how sweet a ride that is. Have fun with her!

P.S. Don't street race the ricers. It ain't worth it. In fact... don't street race anyone. Your car is worth more than that. /End Father_lecture

You dont have to tell me that... I dont want to lose the ride I've longed for, just to show a 4 banger what an 8 cylinder really does

Anyways, I'm going to put the deposit on the car in a matter of minutes... I hope to have her home by the end of the weekend.

wow...congrats dude! 97 WS6's are some of the cleanest lines ever! Treat her well and like everyone said, don't street race. You'll just find yourself in trouble and it's not worth it.

Now go take more pics!

So what's the black f-body count now on the forum? Jay sold his so his don't count...

[wolfdogs]

Jesus ... I used to detail cars when I was a few years younger, but I couldnt bring out a shine like that!!

6 speed or auto? Lookin nice.

Word of advice. When you get it, go to a BIIIGGG open parking lot one night, and test it's limits as far as traction goes, and what happens when you break the rear tires loose. Ya know, get on it a bit. Idea is to find out how the car handles, and how to correct it when there's nothing around to hit. You don't want to be on a one lane road lined with cars when you lose traction for the first time.

Do it when it's dry, and in the rain. Two different animals.

Good luck!

[Need4Speed]

It's a 6 speed...

And good advice btw, I've never owned rear-wheel

Ditto that...we have good grip on dry pavement...especially with the 17 inchers and a good set of tires...but when it gets wet, our cars can be a handful to control.
