so ive had the v6 firebird for 2 days now. i LOVE THE THING!! yea i know its a v6 blah blah blah. i didnt think i would like it at first but its really cool. the body is in good shape, interior is decent, and has a few minor issues, but overall for 700 it was a steal. i have the fbody look with out the mileage of the '80 T/A
will post up some pics of it 2m
