I love my car and I tell ppl that all the time. Then they ask what kind of car I have and they oo and ah when I say "Trans Am." Some ppl leave it at that and then ask what year it is. When I say "83" they either assume it is a piece of junk or is extremely slow. Niether of which are true. My car only has 43,000 miles on it and has been extremely well taken care of. Some ppl think it's 10 years newer and would guess it brand new if it wasn't for the older styling. Also, the crossfire V8 may not be the fastest third gen, but she holds her own against my friends' Z34 Monte Carlo's and turbocharged volvo's. I can dust most other cars at school and when I get it out this spring w/all the new performance parts I'm gettin' I don't think anyone at school will have a faster car. One thing is for sure, though, no one has ever seen my car and said something bad about it. Oh, there is one thing that really ticks me off and that is when ppl get a look of utter confusion when I tell them I don't drive it in the winter and I explain that there were only 2500 25th Ann. Daytona 500 Pace Cars made and that even if it wasn't a Daytona it's still way too nice to drive in the winter. And then, they'll say, "it's just a car." oooooo, never tell me that my T/A is "just a car."

 

srry.. I meant to reply to "so what do other ppl think about your third gen" but I must have hit the wrong button..... srry, ignore this

 

I see you already replied to the other thread so instead of merging this I'll lock it.
