[QUOTE="smitty2919, post: 13334556, member: 113577"] Opinions from you guys who have owned these different cars. I'm selling the GTO to get into autocross and road racing. HP is not a concern right now since I want to learn car control and be a better driver. Looking into: 93-95 GT manual 99-04 GT manual(except "terminators") 01/02 Camaro SS manual Will be a street/track car, something that I can go out and beat on then take to work the next day. I like the idea of 93-95 GT's for the 5.0 pushrod motors I can learn to dive into if needed. I like the 99-04 GT's for the more pleasurable interiors. 01/02 Camaros appeal to me for LS motors and cheap aftermarket like 99-04 GT's. I think 93-95's will be the "cheapest" option to buy and mod. Motor work will be last with any option...everything will be suspension/brakes/safety stuff (helmet, race seat, harness). It will be driven on the street as a DD so I won't go NUTS on making it full race prepped. I will like to keep amenities like heat and AC as well as a back seat area for my dog. It should be able to be driven on road trips and be reliable. Game plan is sell GTO, buy a cheaper car, full tune up and make sure brakes are 100%. Then get a helmet, and drive drive drive. I want to "grow" with this car and modify it as my skills progress. Finally own a car that I modify in which I USE the mods LOL. Thanks for any opinions! [/QUOTE]
