Hi everyone. I traded my S2000 yesterday, and picked up a silver 02 M6 Trans Am. All stock except for Borla exhaust, and a K&N. My last couple of cars have all been turbo Hondas, so this is a nice change. It is nice to have some low end torque I probly won't get too crazy with it. Most likely an X pipe, long tubes, lid, cam, and some nitrous. Look forward to meeting everyone!

Thanks for the kind replies everyone. Can't wait to start modding. I am so happy with the car right now. I will miss my S2000, but this is definately a more than worthy replacement.

i worked for a honda dealer for quite a while and got to drive those s2000s quite a bit. nice cars, but i didn't like the fact that you couldn't tilt the steering wheel. i am a bigger guy so i didnt fit to well. raced my bro in an s2000, (i was in my 02 ss) from a 10mph roll. actually it wasn't even a race. anyway, welcome and lets see some pics of the ta.
