Default The one I thought I bought got sold...

Well I know i've been asking about wether to buy a TA or a firehawk etc, haven't been able to get financed direct with a bank so I had to go through a dealership, I live in SD california and I found a blue TA in Colorado in a VW dealership, here are the specs:

Mileage: 47,709
Engine: 5.7L 8 cyl Fuel Injection
Exterior: Blue
Interior: Grey
Stock Number: V6558A
VIN: 2G2FV22G4X2235743

Cost is about 12k shipped, only thing looks like it's missing is the front license plate cover, im going to request they get me one before I receive the car. I figured for how low the miles are that is a good price, ill probably buy a ws6 hood first, and maybe paint it black later... what do you guys think? I haven't run a carfax but I requested one today.

well someone walked in bought it cash.... now im looking at this one in ohion, can anyone run a carfax for me? they said they would give me one, but if anyone reads this send it my way

license plate covers are only available in black (non-painted). You would have to get it painted to match.

Leave it blue, it is a nicer color than black.

$12k for a 1998 Trans Am may be too much, ..., on the other hand, $12k for a 2002 may be a heck of a buy, ...

I wouldn't repaint it to black, ..., If you want black, go find a black car to begin with.


(I seen your post on the other forum & have noticed you mentioned 1999. So it must be the medium blue metallic?)

You know, I just realize when I was reading your thread on ls1.com, that you titled the thread that you BOUGHT another Trans Am, but you haven't actually bought one.

Uh, yeah... they come the same color as the car on the new car. They only come unpainted as replacement parts.
