Re: thinkin of buying???

The only low mileage trans am i have seen are going for about 19k and up. That's what i'm looking for right now. I'm looking for a 02 WS6.

Re: thinkin of buying???

ya the WS6 is what i would want to, maybe not necassarily the 2002 though..maybe a 99 or 2000 with a couple miles on it to lower value..but back to my original question..do the trans am have a bad qualities? like someone that would stop someone from wanting one?

Not a lot of room to work on them in the engine bay.

Re: thinkin of buying???

for 13 grand you could probably get a 98-00 TA/WS6 with some miles on the clock. Insurance is probably the biggest thing that turns people away from these cars. i would get a quote before you buy one but since you already have a 3000gt, it may or may not go up. Engine bays are a bit cramped as well.

Even us Mustang guys can relate on this one!! I had an 89 coupe and I'm 5"11 and I kept bumping my head on the interior side panel by the window. Then when I got my 92 it was a hatch....THE BACK SEATS FOLD DOWN!!!....Nuff said.
