Switch from Auto to manual

[SlimJim1284]

Maybe, but I just turned 17 and don't feel like paying like 5 g's a year fo my insurance. Maybe when I'm in my 20's I'll get a faster car. Or maybe I'll be more mature...

$14,000 for a 98 SS?!? :rolleyes:

Yah, and I can get a Firebird TA for $12k Riiiiight.

Unfortunately, there aren't many birds out here for a decent price that DON'T have high miles... (98043 for those of you that want to check on autotrader).

I can add that you suck royally for the 99 with all leather and 28K (although mine only had 8k more miles and it was a year older... let's see if you can keep your car under 8k miles a year).

Oh, and I only pay $1400 a year in insurance for TWO (2) vehicles that only I own and drive. :D

I didn't necessarily mean for a 98..between a 93-97. But even so, it could still be possible. I was messing around with a Z28 on the road once, it was the newer body style..I believe it was a 98. We started talking and he said he bought it for around $7,500. Now I don't know how many miles were on it and so on..but I do know the exterior was in good shape, it had T-tops, and it was a Z28. There are some great deals out there..you just need to find them.

Some people have lives and jobs, not everyones mommy and daddy buy their car, some of us have jobs and other things that we have to drive to.

um... wasn't this thread about switching from an auto to a manual? Lets get back to that topic, I heard camarozach had a good description on his page, i went to it and his page is not there anymore, figures.

You'll all likely hold me in disdain but i bought my 99 camaro last june with all options except leather with 19,000 miles on it for $13,000.

IF you want to do a auto to manual conversion I can supply every single part you will need. I have a 98 Camaro 3.8 with a manual. Transmission was a warranty replacement by a GM dealer approx. 10k miles ago. I can give you every part you will need because I am doing a V8 swap and the V8 package I purchased comes with an auto. Let me know if your interested I will let parts go cheap because I need to get rid of them.
