I bought my 2000 v6 for 9,000 a few years ago but i dont think i would anymore... unless it had a sick setup and was clean as hell

im assuming its a 2001.... i dont know what the mileage is, but whatever it is, i would rather buy an lt1 trans am, or higher mileage ls1 trans am for that price.

Personally when i was looking for my first car i chose the 3.8L V6 over the LT1 pretty much just because of how much more badass they look. Dont get me wrong if done right lt1s can look good but the 98-02s look much more up to date even being 9 years old already

hmm. i know what u mean, but i personally like the lt1 look ALMOST as much as the ls1 look, so id go for the better engine (between lt1 and 3.8)

**ss~zoso~ss** · 04-16-2007, 01:06 PM

**innerchi89** · 04-16-2007, 08:22 PM

I told my mom i wanted a trans am so naturally she went out and bought me a firebird for 10,000 after tax and other stuff. She doenst know alot about cars or guys, guys just need V8's. It nice and everything its just has a V6 though. it has 67,000 miles. Pewter Metallic with black T-tops, i like the appearence, everyone keeps asking me if its a formula and i struggle to say NO.. its a firebird. i would have help payed for it but she already paid cash and everything. I loved f-bodys and have for a long time she knew that and thats why she bought it for me, i dont want to hurt her feelings after all that work she went into surprising me and everything.

if she doesn't know anything about car then go then find a pewter formula and trade in the V6 on it and then

she won't notice lol

And if there were any T-top Pewter Formulas around here I would have already pounced on it. The only formula ive seen here is a blue one my friend drives to work its really crappy. I see trans ams all the time, the second day i got the firebird. I saw two pewter trans am in a row it was like they were taunting me with their V8's

yea formulas are pretty rare. Don't worry you will figure out a way to get a V8 one day................... Just curious -did you get your license recently?

no .... i was just curious if you were 16 and had just gotten your license. If that was the case, then i would've said it was good that you only had a V6 - because 16yr old + LS1 = trouble lol

**innerchi89** · 04-16-2007, 09:16 PM

thanks astyles, i hope i do get a V8. i guess a V6 is fine now for insurance purposes only, but as soon as im 21 im getting a Trans Am WS6 no matter what.
