Default Another newb...

Hello!
I've been luking around here for a while now-reading the FAQs and write ups-and I thought I better sign in and say hi.
I drive a supercharged grand prix right now and have come to the realization over the last four years that front wheel drive is for tricycles...not cars! I am selling a house in the spring and plan on buying an LS1 once I have the $$. I am giddy as a school girl about this and searching the interweb for a new car is starting to consume me! I can't wait to be a real member (and not a family car driving wanna be!!)

Thanks for the welcome guys! I really want a bird but will settle for a camaro it I have to. I'd love a vette but it will just be too expensive for me.
I plan on buying a car in Texas and driving it back to Canada (Edmonton).
