aha i got the 3.4 but this is car is to get used to driving i am only 16. my mom was scared that i would go sideways down the road into a pole and kill myself so i am getting used to driving with a v6. but it looks good for me having a v8 pretty soon.

Ah there is nothing wrong with that, I started off with a 3.4v6 camaro and upgraded to a 3.8 v6 firebird. I decided when I got my firebird in the 14s I was going to sell it and upgrade her to a v8. I ran a 14.87 with a lid/skinnies and dr's on the firebird....and now I have my v8

yea i am fine with having a v6 its not bad the car is really clean and its better to learn to drive with less power bc i know it has to be hard not to mess around with that power on a back road with no one.
