well a decision has been made: Black it is. I just bought one this weekend that I will be picking up on Tuesday. I CAN NOT WAIT!!!!!!!!!! I'm gonna try the black out for a while and if I don't fall in love with it, (which I have a feeling I might) that I can always change it up later on down the road. Thanks guys for all your opinions!!

I'll be posting some soon, and probably asking 1000 questions in the weeks to come. I'm buying it from a guy who I know is a member of ls1tech and camaro5.com, just not sure if hes a member here, so you may have already seen pics of it before lol.

He says it's no longer for sale there??

Has a nice cracked pass side door panel. How is the driver side panel? Sail panel?

I was able to work out a deal with him luckily. The drivers panel is just starting to crack (~.25"), so I'm planning on removing it ASAP and removing the staples etc, and reattaching before it gets any worse. Kinda bummed out about the passenger panel, but I plan on getting a replacement sometime down the road. The car is in great condition though IMHO for a 10 yr old car..It needs a little work here and there (nothing crazy), but I look forward to workin on it and makin it damn near perfect. Sail panel appears to be good too, with no bubbles.....yet.

I have SOM with Taupe interior and love it because it's different and rare. It seems like every other F-body out there has black. I have no problems keeping it clean as it is not my daily driver.

That's good news on the sail panel.

Any pictures? Tan is what I've always wanted.. I think I'l be happy with the black though. Might even do a custom interior (seat inserts and door panels) later on down the road. But we'll see.. I can already tell this is gonna be a money pit lol. In a good way though

Nice car. I was have been looking for a SOM TA for a while and that is a lot nicer than the ones I have found for.sale in TX. Good luck and I know what you mean about the money. I have 85k on my 98 and more money in parts than the car is worth by now and still getting more every chance I get. It get's addictive.once you mod it it is never enough and you need more and more. But it is a lot of fun.
