New Firehawk!
I purchased my first LS1 powered car today! I've been driving around in an 02 camaro 6'er which I still own and love but now I have this baby!
Its a 2002 Trans Am Firehawk car number #418!
Its got the bilstein suspension, SLP wing, SLP intake, Chrome wheels, and everything else you can imagine. (I am not sure if it has the auburn differential because I do not have it at my house yet, waiting for loan to go through)
Only 29,000 miles on it!
You guys got any tips for me? I am a responsible driver and am paying for the car myself so I'm no rich kid. I am a gas mileage freak and try to squeeze the most mileage out of my cars (hypermilling). I pulled 34mpg out of my camaro v6, with city and highway driving. What should I expect with this car (its auto).

As soon as I get it home after the loan goes through I will take some more pictures.
Yeah I live near Newark Delaware, and I am 19. I go to college at west chester university in pa.
The killer is just waiting to get it home... I already signed the papers and put the down payment on the car, but loans take time for someone my age.

Should've had your mom or dad co-sign on the loan. I got my $5K loan years ago when I was 19/20 right away with mom co-signing it.
Enjoy the car, especially if you've not owned an F-Body before!

I have an 02 camaro v6, so its my second fbody
2G2FV22G122124981 is the vin, anyone want to tell me anything special about it? haha.
and I am living on my own so my parents are not even in the equation.
Those of you looking to buy f-bodys, watch out the interest rate on used auto loans is 9.95 percent. That. Is. Insane.
I promise as soon as the car is in my hands I will take pictures a to z after a good wash including door codes.

Congrats man! And FINALLY another young F-Body owner on here! (No offence to you guys on here, I don't mean your old, but he is the first other teen LS1 owner I have seen on here) I am 17 and 2 months ago just bought myself a 2001 Trans-Am WS6 M6. My parents are NOT helping me pay for it, they did however co-sign the loan for me because it would take forever for the loan to go through and the interest rate would be rediculous. Here is a pic of my ride from a show yesterday, mine is the red WS6:
Also are you going to sell your V6? Its an easy and great way to get some extra $$. Some to put into the Hawk and some to kep for college
