Default 99 T/A??? need input
hey guys well im still on the lookout for a daily driver and i found a 99 tranam white, light brown leather with 110,000 miles. the car is fuckn clean, everything works great and runs really good.. all stock except for a flowmaster. the reason im still eeeeh about it is because its A4 and the inteior is a light color. but the guy said he would let me take it for $5000, do u guys think its worth it or keep looking for a M6. what are the bad things about 98 and 99 ls1's i wanted a 01 or 02 but they are just too damn much. thanks

Don't settle on a car. You will always regret it.
