Does anyone else
I dunno, i've had my car for exactly 7 months and 9 days, and I still get a smile on my face when I start her up... Does anyone else just enjoy their car so much that while driving they mute their music and just listen to the engine?? I find myself doing that alot now.... Sorry just felt like sharing

I used to make excuses to come see my bro here in angelo when I lived in arlington just to take a small trip.. It's about a 260 mile trip, usually took me around 2hr some odd minutes to get here... Small back roads with no traffic

I've had my car for about three years now and still get a thrill from driving it. I still find myself turning the music down to hear the exhaust. Although I have to admit that I have been playing with the idea of getting the new camaro when it comes out but I don't know if I'll be able to afford to keep the Trans Am. Oh well, we'll see when it comes out and until then I still have one of the greatest cars ever made

Same here guys.. I admit it, I listen to the radio the whole time until I stop and then I usually turn it down just to hear the beast roar up to the speed limit and then I usually turn the radio back up and cruise.. Next stop light same thing I love my T/A and it only has a Flowmaster the previous owner put on it.. I have Pacesetter longtubes, ORY, and SLP Lm1 setting in the garage that gets put on the 7th now I will probably take the radio out becasue I wont be able to ever hear it!

I've owned mine for over 9 years now and I can tell you guys that thrill never goes away. I almost never turn on the radio anymore. 116k miles and She can still put a smile on my face. And if your car can still do that, Then that's all that matters.

I totaly Agree
So many people get wrapped up in big numbers and wanting a full blown race car only to be disapponted when it's not driveable on the street. People used to always say I was conservative about mods and such. But I prefer to call it a more balanced approach.
I'm on my fourth F-Body, 2 Second Gens and 2 Fouth Gens. While I miss the others, I've had this one the longest and it is the only one I bought New. And even though it's got High Mileage and needs a few things here and there it's still better than a minivan.
