meh, gto or fbody same shit, lol lsx powered 2 door that runs low 13s from the factory. I had my eye on both (which i mentioned early in the thread) , so i didnt "settle" for something, I *FOUND* what I wanted.

and Don, you should be happy. Thats pretty much $500 headed into your pocket in the near future lol

Don's trying to help paets are expensive so is labor to fix unlike a fbody. There is no ill intent just like i said u should get a dependable daily rather then trying to race/mod your daily. I won't speak for Don but congrats and i wish you the best with it!

Personally if I had a manual car I wouldn't even bother taking it to the track, just drive it and have fun. Good luck with it, should be a blast to drive.

when i have a decent car im at the track maybe once a year. Whatever i get is intended for the street and having fun. the FWD S/C got old, everytime you got on it slightly the tires spun, TC kicked in (with it off) and youd end up bucking around..i mean its a hell of a daily but just doesnt provide that fun the classic V8 RWD car does.

And John, just giving Don shit, i think he knows that. Hes generally the first person to point out the bad, ive come to accept that about him lol no problems here. Blunt honesty is something I value.

I appreciate the concerns but dont sweat shit breaking, I can afford it if/when it does, so im not worried. Its the wrong game to be in if thats what your worried about. with more power comes shit breaking

I'm not killing it,just throwing out basic facts. I know Midnight and how he can flip/flop on decisions. I remember his old F-body that had little issue's and it was stressfull for him.

The GTO's aren't bad. Alot of the owners are really weird though. They go good but I think they lack the sports car feel.
