Yeeaaah, I guess I have to agree. I have been thinking about it for a while and I might have to reluctently switch my earlier opinion. I remember when I purchased my 1998 Trans Am, in early 98. I was one of 1400 who owned one across the states. 1 of three in Colorado Springs where I lived. It felt great to be on the road with the first model of a different body and engine platform. It was great. Very noticeable, even got a little ass over it for a while. Beat some cars also.
