how long did you wait?
Im starting to get aggrivated!! I have been looking for a good month on the net and around town for another ls1, and cant seem to find one. All the good sales are in other parts of the country, forcing me to either spend a day driving and another day comming back or flying. Also it seems every1 wants their cars gone "as soon as possible" but want a pretty penny for it, and are not willing to budge on the price. How long did u wait to get ur car?

Black- RIP S4 06Tbss
I waited four months to find the TA and eight months to find the S4. Hang in there the right one will come. If you find one out of state have someone on the forum look at it for you.

looking for a 98+ SS OR WS6. MUST BE A 6 SPEED. It must have at least a cam (if not h/c or stroker) and be in good condition. I would prefer if it had an aftermarket rear and clutch because with 400+ hp i dont see both of them lasting to long. Looking for it to be driving distanct from jersey.

2000 Grand Prix GTP- 2000 Trans Am WS6 M6
Well, ever since '98 (When I was in 5th grade) I wanted one ...took about 2 months of actually searching to find what I was looking for (had to be Black, WS6 Package and 6 Speed). Bought mine in Detroit...flew up there, drove it back.

got to ride in one my freshman year, and was in love.... i immediately was looking for what i wanted...a 00 or newer black ws6 Trans Am.... sophomore year bout bought a pewter v-6 that had tinted windows and some odd and end stuff... but the parents talked me out of it....then my junior year a local shop got in a mint black Trans Am but not a ws6...i was figgured i could settle for a non ws6...but i didnt get to it fast enough and a local buy it.... once again i was all depressed...then one night after a wrestling tournament i was on my way home and decided to swing though the lot of a local shop and as i pulled in BAM ...right there angle parked so it was staring you down as you entered......was a 00 black ws6 T/A....my dream had been answered, so i looked it over drooled on it, and went home woke my parents at 3am and told them i found my car... for the next week i bugged the hell outa my parents, and stopped into the dealership every day after school, ran a carfax, had loan figgured out, just needed the parents ok... that friday i went in and stopped in after school and imediatly noticed it was moved and parked next to the building.... i was immediately sick to my stomach thinking someone else had bought it, so i put it in park and went to walk inside and my dad walked out the door and thew me the keys and said it's yours.........i had died and went to heaven, all i had to do was walk inside and throw some signatures on some papers and i was off........
thats how i ended up with john wayne...

i looked for about 3 or 4 months before i found mine. I wanted a WS6 but settled for the t/a because it was a 6speed all stock with only 83,xxx miles on it.
