Just Got IT...
I'm pretty excited....I had a 1995 Black TA and to make a long story short...1987 Suburban = Totaled 1995 TA...
So, I was driving a Nissan Xterra and I had to get another TA....
I found a 1998 Red TA Convertible WS6 Ram Air, 18k Miles, 1 owner, HAD TO BUY..
I love this car!! I wouldn't want anything else.

The auto isn't bad, I also would prefer the m6 in mine but the shift points are well set on the 4l60e and it'll be faster than the m6 on the strip, especially if you throw in a trans brake.

do you plan on keeping the miles down? Either way 12500 is a good deal

Ya, i really wanna take it to college with me. But thats about 150 miles away and I travel home too often. My GF, same hometown n college just got a brand new cobalt a year and a half ago. She already has more miles than I do due to the trip to college. So, im gonna drive it on the weekends and summer time...

Atleast you have enough willpower to resist to drive yours.
I drive mine everywhere, I love driving my z/28. Whenever me and my girlfriend go out we always take mine(shes learned to just accept it), she doesnt even ask to take hers anymore.
I wish I wasn't so addicted to driving mine because it does have quite a few miles on it, 182xxx, but it still pulls strong and purrs like a kitten. Sadly,lol, that doesn't deter me from not driving it and keeping miles off of it. The way I look at it though is, I bought it to drive it, and its safe to say I do drive it, everywhere!
My girlfriends '04 Altima has just a hair over 100xxx, it's a sharp little car don't get me wrong. It's just nowhere near as fun to drive as mine.

I don't see anything wrong with adding miles unless you plan to trade in/sell/get rid of your car at some point. I don't, I plan to keep it forever and I mean it. Miles are in a sense a way to show your affection to your car, the more you put on there yourself the more you love your car. I saw this thing on TV once, there was this old lady with a 70 camaro, had over 1 million miles on it, she was the original owner and just drove it to work every day since she got it and still does today. That's a beautiful story and it ought to serve as a source of inspiration to all of us. Don't trade them, if something breaks just use it as an excuse for an upgrade. "Well what do you know the rear end went out, well looks like I'll have to give moser engineering a call and see about that 12 bolt." or "Oh what do you know the engine died, well looks like I'll have to call gm and see if they've got a ls7 for me."

haha, i would love to...but im a broke college student. I already spent too much on this as it is. But it was the best buy I've EVER made. But for a little while. I have to focus on a place to stay, wedding, children in a few years....Things like that.
Also, I go to a pretty small college and I will bring it here a few times, But I never drive while Im at college. All I do is drive a couple highway hours and then park it for a 2/3 weeks till the next drive home. So I figure I can drive it all weekend / all summer and still get pretty much the same use but save some major miles.
