civicplaya20 Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 So I have posted a couple different topics on what I may get, or what may happen. Well something has finally happened. I bought my first domestic. 1999 Firebird. 5 speed v8 oh and the price.... well it was only 7700. As for mileage it has 56k on it. So all in all it's not a bad deal. On top of that I got it from a dealership so it has gone through a little bit of inspection. I'll post pics tomorrow when I can and it's light out.
Humphries Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 lol!!! v6 5spd... lame as a convertible 40th anniversary mustang v6
Jeffro Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 KBB value on a 5-speed firebird is 8k. If it is a 6-speed V8, then you got a deal because that would be valued at 10,500. Trans Am is worth $12k :drool: Sorry about your luck.
lceah Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 Congrats! I like Firebirds...I used to want to get a '79 one! pics when possible plz

Trans Am is worth $12k :drool: Sorry about your luck. I hate posting this as late as I am, but you'd be hardpressed to even go onto Ebay and pick up a Trans Am for 12K. ' And, actually Billy. While it might be "lame", it's probably faster than your Civic.
90CRex Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 yea, dont sleep on that GM 3.8 v6 with a 5 speed, itsfaser than you think. my 02 camaro had that set up and could leave awd turbo talons and eclipes out the hole and walk them the rest of the 1320
Ben. Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 Maybe bone-stock Talon's if they couldn't launch. Get the jump and hold them off. Average 3.8 F-bodies go mid/high 15's. SOME get lower, but..again..that's some. When modifications are introduced, however..the gloves come off.
Humphries Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 maybe going on a straight line.. but get me on a mountain run and i'll keeeeellll ya
Ben. Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 Again, you'd be surprised at what an F-body can do with the proper suspension tweaking. After all -- A Camaro/Firebird is nothing more than the broke man's Corvette.
civicplaya20 Posted June 7, 2007 Author Posted June 7, 2007 Well here is the pic that I have needed to put up. It's a clean car and when I can start modding it I will have a whole lot of fun. Oh and forgive me for making the mistake about it being a v8. This is my first domestic, cut me some slack
Ben. Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 First step you'll need to learn now that you're a domestic driver.. You gotta' have thick skin. If people wanna' talk about your Wee-six, tell them to piss off. The car is clean dude. You should look into investing in some 98/02 Camaro SS rims, and/or chromed/polished C5 Z06 rims. BOTH look fantastic on these cars.
