A pic of my reason for selling my GTA

SO the GTA is goign up for sale in like a couple weeks or so. ANd I know many of you dont agree but heres the reason for it. The GTA was great and looked awesome, but I like this car all around alot better. I just got the rims on the weekend, the Ram Air hood is at the body shop, it will be lowered in a week or two and i already got AFPR, gears, roller rockers, and 4" Mufflex coming soon. ANd once the GTA is sold, it will finance the 383 and two stage nitrous for it.

Ya well. Right now the #1 contender for buying the car is a fellow member of this board. His name is Kyle, I dont know his name on here though. But he has a white z28 with blue skirts and a turbo hood i believe. Atleast with him the car will fall into good hands

That car is soo beautiful... i remeber seeing it on the gtasourcepage, that was so nice work. It seems that a lot of ppl are selling out for 4th gens and other cars, its a bummer.

AHAHA.....funny. Well I really like the looks of my 4th gen also. Besides. I paid easily 1/2 for my 95 then what that project would end up costing me.

Nice car. Sad to see it go but i'm sure it will be in good hands with the new owner.

I've owned a 1996 T/A and I just never felt comfortable in it as I am in my 1991 Formula. Guess thats why I still own the 1991 and sold the 1996.

Yea your totally crazy dude, that formula looks nice and all..but nothing like ur GTA! Do yourself a favor and wait atleast a few weeks to think about it before you sell it. Personally i dont even like driving 4th gens there boring..the only reason id buy one is so id have something to drive so i could put my third gen in the garage!

DUDEEEEEE!!!!!!!!! ARE YOU CRAZY ! , look man i have been on this board along long time, since like 1990's something?? under diffrent names, anywho your car is one of the finest 3rd gen i have ever seen, if you sell that car for a 4th gen, it better be a ram air, not what you are thinking of buying, i would nerver do that in a million years , just go out and buy a 4th gen, thats what i did, i got a lt1 95 z28 leather, fully loaded, showroom condition, with 72k on it, for only 8 grand, 4th gens are selling cheap now days, , now i will admit 4th gen are far more supperior then 3 rd gen in alot of areas, which stands to reason newer technology, but , any way back to my point, dont do it man you willllll sooooooo regret it trust me lol, oh well just my 2 cents,
