Default Would You Buy Another F-Body?

Simple yes/no question here...

Knowing what you do about F-bodies, and considering your expiriences with them in the past, would you purchase another F-body(any year) in the future?

You can bet the bank I would get another. The only problem is they are not to good in the winter or the rain other that that there is no downfall. Lotta bang for you'r buck!

Hell yes. In fact, I've already done that, 4 times!

When I sold my '00 WS6, I was pretty sure that I wanted a Vette. But after looking at a few (and nearly buying one) I realized just how much I missed my F-body and wound up buying another. The C5 is a nice car, but appearance wise I simply prefer the F-bodies.

On the other hand, should I buy another V8/RWD performance coupe in the future it would be a C6 or the new 5th gen Camaro. But I plan to keep my current 4th gen in addition.

Next time around, it'll probably be a C5. I love my car, but the squeaks, rattles, excess weight and all the little problems these cars have (Power windows, cracking door panels, etc.), and being that my dad has an 02 Z06, I can defintely see why some choose to go with the y-body.

Been so tempted lately to add another that I went to the bank on Friday and tied up my loose money into a CD for the next 10 months.

I would buy another in a second. I don't plan on getting rid of the T/A. Maybe when I graduate college and start making the big bucks I will buy a new Z06

I would never in a million years buy another. I freaking hate these cars. No power, crappy engine, horible handling, and did I mention they are guttless.

Ok, I i ever talk like that, please shoot me, lol. I am now on my third, and I would deffinetly buy another one in a heartbeat. I hope to buy a 3rd gen for a DD.

Already have. If I sell my '69 then I'm all but sure going to get a LS1 car, I also plan on a pro-touring 70-73 Camaro at some point, I've also got my eye on a 69-73 Firebird. If I don't give in and buy a freaking dragster as boring as that would be for bracket racing it'd help me win some more cash probably.
