Just another Firebird with a ugly non-fuctional hood......no big deal


However, I do like the Daytona Yellow on the rest of the car! Get a smooth hood and paint it Daytona Yellow - Then you'll have a nice car.

 

Non functional? Have looked at it. It is functional.

 

Don't mind him Mark....he is obviously on some strong medication. ahhaha

I would say that the price you found it for at a dealership is about right...easily worked down in price another 3-4k and I think you would have a good deal. Only ones with less than 1k miles should even come close to 30k.

I love my CETA and it is the best purchase I have ever made! No matter where you go in a CE you get all the attention. Let me quote one of our newer members to the CE family who traded his Firehawk in for a CETA:

 

I got my CETA for $18,000 with 34K on the clock

 

I would love to have a CETA. Dont see to many around where i live...hmm dont see to many f-bodys around here either

 

I still have yet to see the significance of the yellow paint scheme. All the anniversary cars were white. (except that 79 that was silver)

 

Well, first because they only made 2k of them for USA sale, so they probably wanted it to look rare. Also, it was the pace car for daytona in 2002, and most pace cars are yellow (vision). I wondered the same thing and then I thought, can you show me the difference of a black, red or any color 98 - 02 trans am? formula? firehawk? none, all the same. But when you see a yellow banana trans am coming down the road,,(if you ever see one) you KNOW its a collectors edition, last year made, last of the breed trans am.

The 99's were white and you could buy a white one and put a 99 anniversary stripe kit on it, and paint the wheels blue, and it would be hard to tell driving down the road. But no one can do that with a ceta unless they paint the whole car yellow.

So yes,,the head rests, stickers, black wheels , can all be duplicated, but the yellow is a 2002 CETA. Just mho, oh yeah, might be somewhat biased since I sold my "average" firehawk for a ceta vert

 

Also, the CETA is not a TRUE Anniversary Edition. It is a Special Edition Trans Am monikerd, Collector Edition. Since it isn't an Anniversary Edition Trans Am there was no need to stick to the White/Blue scheme that had been so common to the anny ed. Since Yellow was a popular color for the time, Pontiac pulled one from the previous years of 4th gens.

 

Wow, I just realized this thread is over a year old Oh well while I am posting here is a pic of the old Z (R.I.P) and the newest toy that was taken a while back

 

The yellow is sunbird yellow of that year. Not a firebird color. Banditcar u need a few speed mods. A cam i think.

Dave i stole ur avitar.

 

Uh-huh, took me 3 hours to make that avatar and "poof" stolen
I couldnt get it to work on our ceta website though. Just remember who you stole it from

 

The color is sunfire yellow (WA9929) not sunbird yellow.

 

CETA's Rock, Love mine.

This car is over priced:

Thanks again dave what is ur CETA web site????

 

"the" ceta website is http://www.collectorfbody.com/

 

I'll have to pass on the cam, hahaha

I actually purchased my first performance mod, a hi-flo lid and K&N filter. Next on my list is a smooth bellows and ported MAF ends. I'm also considering ceramic headers and a catback exhaust...but that is something I'll have to research some more.

 

WHAT???????? your modding your ceta?????????? Please tell me its not true????? Now I'm the last one left!!! Damn I have to get with the program

 

Bought my CETA in Sept. for $23K with 6800 miles on it. Just bought a lid, and cat back for it thats going on once the weather warms a bit. Headers and an ORY are going on the same time (I hope).

 

oh just mod the damn things guys, sure thier collectors, but when it comes down too it, its still an F-bod!! My wish was to have an 02 aniv. SS, and id mod the **** out of it and just keep the original parts. But i must say, ive seen afew in passing and they are F____ing sweet lookin doin down the road! Didint know they were so rare though.

 

paid 22,500 for my ceta with 8,012 miles on it m6 t-top great condition, number 1369
