You do have a nice ride, but I sense there is an underlying motivation to this post besides patting yourself on the back  |

Nope. Just driving her this evening... been commuting with her for the last few days... enjoyed the ride.
Sometimes I think we forget to just enjoy how fun these cars are!

Mine just keeps sucking more money! Just spent $300 on a Tick adjustable master cylinder.
Glad someone is having fun!  |

So true my friend. hope all is well in the NW
Driving my car across the country was some of the most fun i've ever had in my car.
from the mt passes in northern idaho and montana, to the scenery in yellowstone, and the flat open road of wyoming and west texas. Just fun to drive

Yea dude I am with you on that one!
I love my ride, and it gets the heart cranking every time i get in it!
These cars are just cool...yea they can be a pain at times, but the drive times always make up for it!
I have put some serious coin into mine, and have ZERO REGRETS or 2nd thoughts...
Speaking of which, I hit that big-ol-mod pipe this week, and will post up some pics...and it was a BIG hit too...still realin on that one!
A bit out of my basic norm...  _________________

They are fun to drive especially if you dont drive them often. I drive a 3/4 diesel truck every day, when I hop into my car I always suprised at the power and handling. Might just be the low back seats and my 6'4 frame, but there is nothing like matting it at 50 and straining to keep your head from moving backwards.
My wife used to have 4th gen T/A and it did not handle nearly as well as an IROC.
3rd gens have something that is missing from most of todays cars. They are fun to drive. They have there Idiosyncrasies but you know that going in. |

As of the other day (and thanks to Tick Performance's adjustable master), the car is mobile and finally at the body shop. It was amazing to get behind the wheel of that thing again. |

I think we should get our cars together for a shoot or something. Stock vs Modded. I like seeing yours all clean stock.  |
