Well i've started looking at trans ams and formulas again and its got me wanting one again. I've found a nice good price range one too a 2000 for $13950 6spd midnight blue. Thats a good price for that. But then i remember insurance and how i should get a car thats good on gas and a travel to work daily driver and also theres the little fact that i'm almost in a committment with the scion tc (payed a $200 dollar holding fee and signed a contract that says that the contract is subject to a test drive) and the tC isn't thatbad of a car....but like my friends point out its only a 160 HP 4 cyl engine and i'm gonna be paying almost 19K for it (they dont know its 19K tho, the think that its base price of $16xxx). AHHHHHH ****ing decisions!!!

Of course everyone is gonna say "Trans Am, Formula, CORVETTE!"This is a f-body site... Flip a coin.I speak the truth, I say what other don\'t say.<br />I am a ***.Comment

not only that... but typically your insurance goes down when you add a second vehicle. nevermind the fact that you will be adding a car pmt... [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img]Comment

Would you still keep your 6er as a project car? If so, I'd say go economical because you'll have a fast car in the garage. Remember, if you buy a T/A as a daily driver, you have to deal with insurance premiums and paying for premium fuel. If you're gonna get rid of the 6, then hell yes, get the Trans Am. 6-speeds own!Comment

remember if u get that scion your going to hell ;)\"Well, we don\'t care how bad-*** some dude\'s N/A Honda S2000 motor is; if you go up against 900+ pushrod ponies and 750 pounds of earth-shaking torque with a wrong-wheel-drive econobox, you\'re gonna get a fast and furious old-school ***-whipping.\"Comment

Yes i will be keeping the 6 for a project.Maybe i'll do an LS1 swap (or at least a V8 swap)...so i can have my 8 without having to spend 10K+ on a t/a [img]smile.gif[/img]

get the TA and take the 6 off the insurance. save some money. pay for it sitting in the garage. i cant really remember what its called. used alot by people going on a long vacation. its real cheap and you can have a the peice and mind if someone steals your stereo or somethingComment

Alot of insurance company's will insure it as a show car.. just don't put over like 3k miles a year on it .00\' firebird v6 5spd<br />201rwhp ---- 230 rwtq<br />\"Everyday I grow stronger...and further from you.\"<br />WARNING: Do not take any of my comments seriously unless they are technical in nature and then only at your own riskComment

I'd say to go with the TA too. I don't think my buddy has seen under 20mpg in his WS6 with trips to the track and "very spirited" driving. He gets better mileage than my 6 on average, and I know 28mpg isn't uncommon with his car. Just some food for thought.~Chris<br />1999 Hugger Orange Camaro<br /> <a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/ride/273836\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/ride/273836</a> <br /><br />†…faith…hopeComment
