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

lol it looks pretty deadly... the fact you have a fiance/husband that knows how to fix it up it makes it that much more appealing

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?

It's an automatic...I drove an anniversary addition stang gt with a short shifter and it was incredibly stressful driving it! It's faster as an auto anyway believe it or not

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.

yeah, I don't know, I need to find some cheap insurance. I checked geico for a 2003 Camaro and it's 327 a month! WTF!! Progressive was about 100 cheaper but idk, this is my first time buying a car by myself and it's scary!:(

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

it's like my fiancee says, every once in a while I make a worthwhile contribution to life

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

HazMatt24 05-22-2007 04:38 PM

I wish my fiancee were as cool as you, she's into imports

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.
