My car is freaking awesome plain and simple, the engine rumbles its fun as heck to drive and its great to look at. The only thing that could make it better is if it was a 6 speed black Z28 which I plan on buying as my next car to buy in the future.

Pros — It is the most fun thing I've ever driven.
Cons — It wasn't well taken care of by its previous owner, low to ground so you have to watch steep areas that level off quickly

Strong Motor and cornering is great. Lots of aftermarket parts available too. I'm planning on upgrading the brakes and getting a strut tower brace. After that I'd like to do exhaust and maybe a CAI. There's nothing like taking off the t-tops and cruising around in the summer. I think there are enough word here now.

Pros — Everything
Cons — Fog lights blow out way too much

This is a great car, from the ram air hood to push air to the LS1 Corvette engine to put over 300 horses through the T56 6 speed Corvette/Viper transmission, through the light weight alluminum drive shaft, to the posi rear end to spin both those 17x9.5 ZR1 wheels. I just cant wait to get it running again after a thrown rod bearing calls for an engine swap, but the car will be rebuilt with comp cams push rods, springs and retainers, a mean cam, hooker super comp long tube headers, hooker 3in. catless Y pipe, borla adjustible catback, slp intake lid, LS6 intake manifold, MSD ignition, double roller timing chain, and a custom tune, not to mention the engine will get some painted parts so it will look much better.

Pros — lots of power, 6 speed, T tops, posi, AMERICAN MUSCLE
Cons — not working right not

It handles very nice, it's a fun car to drive especially with the t-tops off, but it's a horrid gas guzzler! It has needed a few expensive repairs as well as the normal maintenance. The interior and exterior are in pretty decent shape for the car being 10 years old

Pros — N/A

I have owned this car for about a year now and it is my second F-body. Personally I love these cars. Even in its stock form they are gorgeous, high performance automobiles, that give you a thrill from the second you turn the Key. I would recomend this car to anyone that can handle its power with respect.

Pros — Looks, Power, stability
Cons — Noisey, long, and heavy

Gas mileage sucks balls but its a beast...1.7 60fts on the track and yes its a stalled auto...Only cost $10500 in 2005 with 65000 miles. I'd say it was a bargain when you factor in how much money it normally costs to run sub 13s.

Pros — acceleration
Cons — gas

good first car... needs more power. i would get a manual if you have the option and a v8 is preferable, but the v6 is ok, but the gas mileage is pretty sucky, right around 18-24. 24 was the highest i have ever gotten, but it was fun to drive, but now i am looking for some power.

Pros — looks
Cons — lack of power

Kind of a rare SS hardtop.The upgrades put me around 407hp. Upgrades include BBK 80mm Throttle body, SLP Mass airflow sensor, SLP cold air induction system, SLP bellow, 3" Dynatech Headers, 3" Borla exhaust system, new OEM headlights because old ones were hazy and yellow. Silverstar bulbs in the headlights, took the front grille off, white turn signal lamps, crappy purple-ish tinted windows, All black Z06 Corvette rims 17" on 17" Dunlop Direzza tires, Powerslot Cross drilled/slotted rotors, EBC "red-stuff" brake pads, Kenwood Excelon Headunit w/ Kenwood Music Keg Player.

Pros — Strong reliable engine, good horsepower, decent mpg for a V8 sports car.
Cons — A4 I have :) Bad traction in wet/snow conditions depending on tire, but usually it's pretty poor none-the-less. It is more of a drag car, so the handling takes a hit. 98's have annoying computers in them which makes it harder to tune with a programmer.....and.....no traction control heh.

It is only a V-6. It is still not bad for acceleration and handles pretty well too. Braking is also very good.

Pros — The Oil filter is in a very easy spot to change. Back seat is small but not as small as some cars, still pretty comfortable. T-top is awesome in the summer. about 30 Mpg
Cons — T-top leaks sometimes, doesn't handle well on snow, tire type may help with that too.
