Keep your GTA and have a killer 3rdgen, or be a drone and get a 4thgen like everyone else.

OOh, that's a tough one, though if it were me, I couldn't see selling my car and having some other guy driving it, almost like seeing another guy with your ex.
You can forget about working on the 4th Gen, 1/2 the engine is under the firewall.

Hmmmm. Why not sell that car and get another Third Gen with a 350 and lower miles??
nothing is wrong with the car though. and I want a GTA hardtop, and this is the only one I've found that wasnt in cali or something.
EDIT:
also if I sell this car I don't want to get anything else but a new t/a. no reason too buy another old car with 80,000 on it........ its my daily driver so I'm not concered bout the miles too. I mean as long as everything is in good shape.

Keep the thirdgen and get it perfect. It'll be like a new car, and it'll be way easier to work on than a fourthgen.

Do what I did, find something cheap and reliable to drive everyday and work on the GTA. I jsut picked up a '88 300zx, t-top, auto, black with charcoal leather int, got it $2K. Needs shocks and struts and some little stuff but other than that its great!
