Default Im 16 an i aint gota clue!

Im 16 an im tryin ta get a job so i can get money ta buy a car! (DUH what guy aint) im stubborn an i want ta get a 98-02 Pontiac Trans Am/Fire bird (whichever you prefer ta call it) but there too expensive for me an i dont think i can wait that long ta get the money i need,an another thing that's stopin me from buyin the 97 or older models is the front bumper and both, headlights and taillights i just dont like them as you all can agree im guessin. i was wonderin if its possible to attach the front of a 98-02 Trans Am/Fire bird bumper and their lights onto an older model. Cause the 97 an older models are cheaper an i aint gota job so im in a pinch.

you can find a high mileage 98 or 99 trans am for around $5,000 if you search around. Trans Ams are the V8s. Firebirds are the V6s. you can change the 93-97 bumper to the newer one but you also have to get a hood to go with it, so with the money you spent to change the bumper, hood, lights...you could have gotten the newer transam with the better motor probably cheaper.

as far as buying one? check the for sale section on this site, they've got tons of good deals and the people selling them are all great people.
