exactly. I quite aware my insurance will go up slightly (depending on the make and model, TA Formulas insurance is lower than say a Camaro Z28) but I will be able to do so much more with one. And Alero's like I said earlier arent known for being fast. And ppl around her dont want a "fast alero" they want an f-body. I've printed off 15+ ads most from dealers that are amazing and clean with under 75k miles. My car will deprec sooner than later and you're right, I wanna sell it while it looks good and is still relatively new...to someone who will take care of it.

that's hot. The only downer to a TA as compared to a Camaro is that the headlamp motors tend to go out

nice. You'd have enough left for an intake and exhaust, that frees up a lot on those cars. Is it a stick or manual?

My Camaro was auto. It still hauls, but just something about having full on control over the gears. Definitely want to invest in a B&M shift kit for it then.

well from your previous post of saying he's only your fiance for two more days, have you checked on married rates? They should be less

well that's what she's there for! Part of the reason I'm gettin this TA is because mine assures me he can fix it if something goes wrong...and in the short run AND long run, it'll save me an ass load of money...which I can then use to put more perf. parts in it

ouch, sorry. But I actually had to sleep on the couch one night because we got into Domestics Vs Imports. And it doesn't help our roomie is half Jap so he always thinks Imports are better. Just wait, she's going to pull up one day and see an F-body sitting in the carport and shit herself.
