It looks like my 98 Trans Am will be gone by tomorrow afternoon. I really don't want to sell it, but need to bring up the funds in order to adopt our girl from out of country. I spoke with my wife and she reassured me that I'll be able to get another one at some point in the upcoming year or something. Sheesh - I'm gonna miss it. Such a joy to drive, stare at, wash, etc.

 

gotta do what ya gotta do! it may suck for a while. but it will definately make you appreciate the next f-body you get that much more.

 

Tis true! The problem is, I know I will be looking for one even before I have any business to start the process! Whenever I start looking for a car, I get consumed with it and my work output actually suffers.

 

i hear you on that. just gotta keep your mind clear of it and eventually you will fall on a deal. however the withdrawals between now and then will bother the **** out of you.

 

For sure - Oh well, I guess I'll just try and plug away to put away more money.

 

just wait for the 08/09 camaro

 

Bro.. you are doing the right thing for the right reasons... my hats off to you. Start saving for the 2009 Camaro SS

 

That sucks, but it's for a good reason. Wait and get a newer bird. Once you have had a bird you wont go to a camaro.

 

 

very well said! but good luck with the adoption and hope all is well for ya! GOOD LUCK

 

actually, if the rumors are true, he'd want the Z28 over the SS on the new camaros....from what i hear, it's supposed to be going back to the old days where the Z was the performance king, and the SS was the "luxury" edition. i may be wrong, but i'm just stating what i've heard....

 

Actually back in the old day the Z28 was the handling version and the SS was the power one. I hope they go back to a platform where there is atleast a difference in the two besides appearance and options...Anyway, sorry you had to get rid of your car but you'll get another one

We've all sold our "babies" at one point or another to get something or do
something different...just to get another one later on down the road that is
faster and more powerful!

Web work - do you do anything with flash?

 

I havn't sold any "babies" yet...Maybe i'm not old enough yet...

once you get in the new ride, the old one will just be a happy memory

 

NOSJohn, you bet! That is what I have been best known for. Pm'ed ya

 

Just think about it this way If this one was good the next one will be BETTER! GL bro

 

I sold my TA back in 03 cause I had my son. It was our only car and we just couldnt do it with the payment and the back seats arent set up for carriers. It was hard to let it go but I wouldnt dare take that car over my son if it was offered to me. You on the right track....just a car, you can always get another one. Thumbs up! Give it a couple of years and you never know, maybe your lil girl will be out in the garage wrenchin with ya.

 

I did the same thing, just recently in the last days of December. Girl, kid, and going back too school took a big part in my decision. I will get another one as well down the road. Im not digging the new camaros or trans am that are about to come out so I will just look for an 02 somewhere unless GM makes major changes to the concepts that they showed.

 

I agree with you!
