All look good, with the exception of the collectors edition TA I'm not a huge fan of that one. I'd want an M6 if I were getting an f body so my pick would be the 99 Hawk or the 02 WS6. All nice though. Do you have one that you favor over the others?

Good point, if it's a modded car that says it runs 11's or whatever you know it was beat on. A stock car has a better chance of being unmolested.

That's why I'm considering the Mecham, the 99 or the 02 FIrehawk.
