Default My new f-body 99 T/A

Well after searching for the perfect car I have finally found her. It's a 1999 pewter Trans Am with 32,000 miles. Auto, t-tops, grey leather interior, fully loaded, in mint condition. I got it from Linder Dodge in New London, CT. Me and my dad went to pick it up Saturday morning, left at 5:30AM, and arrived at 9:00AM. It has tinted windows and the original lady owner just got a Magnaflow cat-back exhaust on it, I am in love, lol. The three hour drive home was awesome, the LS1 pulls really hard(could't go to fast though, following my dad home) and is a very smooth ride with no creeks or crack like my LT1. Okay I am done ranting now, but I am just so happy to be the owner of a beautiful LS1 Trans Am and another beautiful LT1 Trans Am. If someone can let me know how to post pics I will asap.

hey, im happy for ya. I still remember the very moment I walked out of the door at the dealer place looked over at my old ranger, gave the hood one last kiss (it was my first car, and I will always love that car) then I got in my camaro and drove away, a hard moment, but prolly the best moment I can remember. I honestly didnt sleep at all that night

Drive on!

that feeling is the best feeling in the world. I bought my 98 ws6 2/26/04 from a man in NY that trailered it to CT for me. I couldnt describe the emotions i was feeling but it was the best thing ever. I just felt bad when he drove away from my house looking at th car crying.. (he really didnt want to let it go)

I love that new car feeling. When I got my SS this fall, it was meant to be. I found the car in a small town and it was owned by an old couple. Got the loan waited for the couple to get back into town, in the time waiting i decided not to buy the car due to my upcoming freshman year of college. About a month after classes started i got a call from a buddy down at a dealership in town telling me an old couple just traded in their 2000 black SS, went down to take a peek and it was the car. Didn't want to let it get away twice and so i bought it the very same day.
