What's wrong with your car? i would imagine for how hard we beat on our cars, things tend to wear and break from time to time...especially if its a '98 
i have a tendency of turning cars to mush, and was curious to see what problems everybody else was running into..
as it sits right now i have...
-Blown Tranny
-Bent torque arm
-weld on my header collector broke down the middle and the car wont idle for ****
-short circuit in my dash....blows fuse when lights come on...have to race using my dome light to see the gauges...
-Busted bushings in my rear LCAs
-Broken motor and tranny mounts
-Leaky diff cover
-Bald street tires
-Bent drivers seat
-Broken arm rest
lol damn...now i feel depressed

Tijuana paint job,
Vibrates like a dog shitting razor blades,
Bad bushings all around,
Shot tranny that takes he-man to put into reverse,
Horrible collector leak,
Dying 10-bolt that sounds like an army of crickets,
And the god damned defroster doesn't work.

There is really nothing wrong with the car, it runs just fine. It does have some of the typical little annoyances common with the F-body. The stupid bubbles on the sail panel, door panels are cracked, and I replaced one window motor, the other can't be too far behind.
Lets see what else. The paint job is no longer perfect because I've rubbed up against a couple of things and the front end looks torn up form stone chips and stuff. I believe all four wheels now have curb rash. Oh and I would like to get new shocks although the DeCrappos are still hanging on. Other than that the car is ****
