Default Pic Request: TA's and C5's together

Hey guys, just as the title says, I have had trouble finding pics of these two cars side by side. I still can't make up my mind which I like better from the appearance standpoint. Here is a chance for those with duel rides to show off!

Hmmm. No pics here but maybe you can photoshop a couple of pics together to get an idea of what you're looking for. I'm pretty sure even MS Paint can join two basic pics together.

Oh yeah, TA FTW.

heh looks like someone else is awake still. I just wanted actual pictures so I could compare size/proportions. I've already tried my amateur attempt at photoshopping them together.

Thanks for the persuasion haha, but I have to finish my BSEE this summer before I can get either one.

You have a great looking TA, and those pics with the red vette were sweet.

KevsLS1, that is a beautiful T/A man. I can't decide what I think looks better, A T/A with TT2's and WS6 hood or a C5. I want both

Thanks man.

I've always liked the Trans Am Ws6 looks over the vette, except I'm really starting to like the NEW C6 Z06 , but I'll always have my Trans Am, so I'll have to save BIG TIME for the new vette lol.

haha, I just asked my mom which of the two she liked better on mustang's post, and she picked the trans am. For reference she doesn't know what either of them are.

At this stage in my life I'd probably prefer the TA, but I'm afraid I'd mod it too much, which could be good or bad depending on how long I keep it.

Kevs, go get the c6zo6 and sell me your car for a good price

Not For Sale, I'd like to own a C6 Z06 and keep the Trans Am as a Weekend Cruiser.

Call me Stupid but I've been offered 34,000CDN here in Winnipeg for mine and I refused the offer.

I went through hell to get this car up here from Texas. I'm only 19 and I always loved these cars and wouldn't trade it for anything, there's soo many things I plan on doing with it down the road and when money allows.
