Default NewB gal here...

Hi guys/girls! I just recently bought a 2000 NBM Trans Am M6. It has the typical bolt ons (slp catback, shifter, cai, lid, subframes, centerforce clutch, rebuilt T-56, brembo rotors, etc). I absolutely love this car. I am not new to Fbodys...I had a 2002 SOM firebird before this one and a C4 corvette (not f-body but hey ). I just bought some rims (blacked out Z06 rims w/ polished lip w/falken tires), DMS springs, Bilstein shocks, and a firehawk hood. Ill try to get some pics up soon! Ive seen some very pretty cars on this site! Nice to be with you guys!

Sarah

I wish I had a good picture of my new trans am...but since I dont, Ill just post a pic of my old one to tide you guys over. Mind you, this was a V6 but it had flowmaster exhaust, ram air, raptor hood, and an NX wet kit 75 shot.

I love SOM! I think I would have kept the Firebird and bought the T/A. Welcome to the site.
