Just so you know...
Apparently, I was unaware, but the 96 Trans Am was the best fbody ever built, and everything before and after that were crap.
This is what I was told at my God Daughters 1st birthday Sunday by someone that her mother works with. Of course, she has a 96 t/a. And when I told her that I had a 2002 Camaro, she told me that everything 97 and newer were full of recalls and had a lot of things wrong with them. And thats why there are so many on the market right now, because people have problems and don't realize that they are recalls so they don't want to fix them, and they give up and sell the car. But you should take it to the dealer and make them fix it.
Oh, and btw, the all aluminum LS1s are crap too.
She also informed me that these cars weren't even delivered in this part of the country, which is why they will be worth so much if you have one.
I would have loved to be there to see whoever fed her all this crap to make her buy her T/A. I tried nicely correcting her, but she was dead set in her opinions. I was fuming, and one of my friends was like.. just walk away...

Ahh, deep down inside I always knew that I had the best F-body ever. If only the opti, windshields, cats, and window motors would stop breaking on me.

She's actually close to correct.
But the 93's were actually the best cars! After that it was all down hill.

The LT1 was such a great motor they chose to keep it going in production for a long time...
Or maybe not

Hahaha...Halarious. I've heard some things along those lines and I just laugh and let them speak. sometimes I throw in a little extra to let help them out with things like "did you know that if you get the glowplug conversion, you can run deisel" Sometimes I get a truly ingnorant person and I just laugh even more.
BTW, my pop up lights still run strong. It's those darn power window motors that I hate.
