98 TA since Feb 06, had a 95 when I joined here, my 2nd 95 was the year before and I owned a 93 back in 93 (new) until 95...had an 86 ROC for my fist F-body and an 82 Z28 in 97...both 305 autos (yuk). in between the 93 abd the 95, I had 6 Stangs...
I know that wasn't the question, but I felt like sharing, it brought back fond (and not so fond) memories of sports cars of days past

Currently have a 4th gen but may be interested in owning a 3rd gen someday (in addition to my 4th gen). Anyone know where I can find a GTA for a good price?

It was fun at first, but after having to do a optispark, headers, wires, plugs, ETC, ETC, ETC...it got old fast. Plugs took forever on the Camaro, when I can do em in the Chevelle in about 20 mins. They are fun cars, but just not my thing. I am happy I did it, maybe Ill do it again, but Ill choose a 1st or 2nd gen before another 4th.

That is because you are not afraid to have a car where not everything is a simple bolt-on that some numbnuts wrote up in a magazine!

That is because you didn't buy the right 4th gen.. 98-02 LS1!!!  Even though out of all the 11 4th gens i owned 6 of them were LT1's and im no mechanic by any means but didnt mind the tight cramped quarters or the LT1. Did most of the work myself plugs,wires,alt waterpump,opti etc

I have done all the work myself on all that I own, I just got tired of the car. Sorry, I couldnt afford an LS1 car, I was fresh out of HS and an LT1 was the only car I could afford, besides, I had the Chevelle if i wanted a fast car.
