It's Pewter. Been thinking of some graphics that would look good. Post up pics and links of your ride with graphics. Especially if you have a pewter TA.

Some of these look pretty nice. Opinions?

I did pick up some black Pontiac inserts for the rear, black trans am badges for the doors, and fill ins for the bird on the front. Got them from Ebay.

How many miles? Will ya tell us what you gave for it? I've thought about selling mine. It only has 5,900 miles and is set up nicely with a ProCharger and many other goodies.

Post up some pics! I always did like the pewter color

here's mine

I decided on red for everything. The "Trans Am" on the sides, the front bird, rear "Pontiac", and the "Ram Air" on the hood are all reflective Red. The "Pontiac" on the headlight cover is just normal red. The brake calipers are also in red.

Here's a closer look on the front end where you can see the Ram Air and Pontiac on the headlight cover.

It's an 01. Has 16,400 miles. Got a very nice deal on it.

Will be able to post up pics after Friday when we go pick her up. First it needs a good cleaning, she's prolly never seen a clay bar.

Looks very nice, I'd say I got a [B]very[B] nice deal as well (mine's also an '01)....if I took all of the performance extras off of it and put all of the stock parts back on, I'd still make money on the car, plus have all of the performance goods in hand. It was a unique situation.

I like the fact that it's "newer" than the Z if you take mileage into account. Sure it's a year older than the Z but has half the mileage. I imagine we'll keep both for long enough to transfer all the mods on the Z to the WS6 then sell the Z.

The plan is to take what we can get on the Z, pay off the WS6 and still have enough to buy the 99 Saab we have our eye on. We need a passenger vehicle! We have 4 vehicles, and none of them have passenger room. I have a Ranger for sale too, proceeds from that will go towards the Saab as well. Basically, we will have everything paid off in the next year, and then it's time to buy the Z06.

helluva plan, those new ZO6's are wild

BIGRED Z · 03-22-2006, 12:17 AM

Holy shit, not the new ones! I make a good living, but I don't quite roll like that! We're talking an 03 or 04 Z06. But yeah, the new ones rock.

either way, still a very cool car

the Corvette is the last car I'll add to my collection, then I don't think I'll buy another car ever again. I just don't know which Vette I'll buy just yet.
