Oh to get into an f-body again I sold my '00 Z28 in June, and bought a '98 vette. I hadn't driven an f-body since then...until yesterday. We ended up getting the '93 formula back - which had been sold to my boyfriend's brother (he didn't want to keep it because of gas mileage). I took the car yesterday for a drive and all of the f-bod memories came right back to me...
- The way the seatbelt cuts my throat (I am 5'3"). In my vette the belt is a titty splitter, but in an f-body it just chaffs the hell out of my neck
- The sloooooow power window motor (buying a new one this weekend!!!!)
- The rattles, squeaks, and other noises
But oh nothing is quite like driving an f-bod
I saw my old car at a meet a couple weeks ago, man what a weird feeling to see someone else driving my old pride and joy!

I miss my f-body too. I miss the color (navy blue metallic), and I miss the T-tops. There's so many cars that I would love to have, yet so little garage space.

I miss almost every car I've ever sold. With the exception of a '94 Corolla. No love lost there.

I know how you feel about your old car, ive had 2 other F bodies and seen them before and its just weird. And im pretty sure ive seen your car well the vette in your signiture around charlotte, near the university. If its your car looks good, I think the plate was like msfixit or something like that if I remember right
