I just got home from test driving a 95 stealth r/t auto and I'm like 90% sure I'm going to buy it. Whats the best website out there that carries performance parts for this car?
And for further down the road, what is the best way to add power to an r/t auto.
Thanks guys hope you can help.

kinda depends on what kinda power your looking for
you want big hp, you would need some type of forced induction(turbo, supercharger). you want a extra 20-30 ponies, throw on your basic bolt ons and upgrades.
the sl guys will be here soon, they'll tell you the best way to go

lol, surprised you didn't say this young! and I'm surprised I beat Govert to it too... check the FAQ, it's got alot of good sites, and also the N/A modding bible which lists pretty much all of the major N/A performance parts that you can buy for the car, good luck with everything!

Hey one more quick question. Ther stealth I want to buy has 124,000 miles on it. Is that a lot of miles for stealths or do they usually last pretty long? If I do get this car I will have it for a while and 124k just seems like a lot of miles to start with.

well I mean you are buying a 10 year old car so that kinda mileage is usually to be expected... it's a little high, but not too bad, ask the owner if he did the 60K tune up at the 120K mile marker, b/c if he didn't, than the question is whether or not you're willing to do that yourself (it can range from about $600+ although some have done it for cheaper). All in all, if the car has been well maintained, and hasn't been abused than it'll be fine, but if not you may have some problems on your hands. See if you can get a carfax for it, those always help.

Yea I have the carfax for it and everything is great and the guy had it serviced regularly. The car looks to be in great shape, almost like the guy garaged it all the time and hardly drove it, but according to carfax, about 25,000 miles were put on it just in the last year. There are a couple problems with it but nothing engine wise. The front windshield has a small crack in it, the driver side window doesn't work, there are no horn buttons on the steering wheel, and the pop-out roof doesn't work. But otherwise, it drives perfect. The exterior is in perfect condition except for one small door ding I found and the interior is also perfect.
A small dealer got it at an auction and was asking $5500 for it as is, or $6500 if he fixed everything. If the mileage is not a factor than it sounds like an excellent deal to me. What do you guys think?
