Drive a stick with no synchros without grinding them come back and talk to me I like my auto for the fact its faster with just a converter. Plus I know i would burn them out all of the time since its my DD..
Its not the fact that i care what people think its the fact that i dont want misinformation to keep spreading around.

I also tell people i have a vette engine because they dont know what a ls1 is.

Pretty funny stories in here!

Mines not so great but Ive had a guy at the gas station argue with me that my 5 spokes were aftermarket and not the factory WS6 wheels, I kept telling him those are the stock wheels and he kept saying "umm I dont think so, I dont think they are" so I just gave up, lol

Ive also got the jaw dropping when I tell them it has a corvette engine, all of a sudden my cars fast now......

Ha ha, yea...my g/f told some of her friends that I had a T/A and they were like, "Is it a WS6?" She told them no, and they were upset, but I guess she felt she had to defend it with, "It has a Corvette engine.", and the dumbasses acted like my car was unbeatable. HA HA

Ive had several ppl throw out random years of my 00' TA, anywhere from 2003 - 2007. Im actually really surprised at the amount of ppl will to argue that 2002 wasn't the last year it was made lol.

On a weird side note... I had a kid IM me online and challenge me to a race because I said that I liked his 400 blah blah blah HP Z28 except for the fact that he had went out of his way to put a single exhaust outlet on it... when I declined, he called me a ricer because my car is bone stock (isnt that the opposite of being a ricer? lol).

If I get asked if mine is a V6, my answer is "yep." Auto? "Yep. Don't want the hassle of shifting." Then hopefully we'll meet at a stoplight sometime for a little surprise.

I'm thinking of getting a personalized plate that says ITSA V6.

My plate came in a couple weeks ago. Ignore the rust on stock muffler. No money.

Heres my question... do u Formula guys get more mad when they call your F-Body a Camaro or a Trans Am? lol. I mean all of our Formulas/Trans Ams (plus all the packages you can get) are all Firebirds, so none of us can get really mad about that one, but I know at one point or another each one of you has been asked either of those questions lol. So wrong F-Body? Or wrong trim? Which one stings more?
