It means manual 6 speed. I think they come with a 3.42 rear end so they come stock geared really low with 4 gears of drive then the mighty two overdrives. I tack 2100 at 100mph in 6 gear.

s**t! but i like the looks of the pre 98 maros over the ta's and pre 98 is most likely all i could afford somewhat reasonably </P>


PS they came with m6's too...and trust me, i would never get auto if i had a choice not to</P><edited><editID>Jugador</editID><editDate>37927.6639467593</editDate></edited>

Yea, the camaro and TA are basically the same car. On my ws6, z28 forum though, most ppl say that stock for stock the TA was faster. Don't know why though. BTW the 6 speed is a blast but very hard to hook up.<edited><editID>95LT1</editID><editDate>37927.6720023148</editDate></edited>

im poor dude lol...all i have is like 2k saved and i doubt my dad would contribute much more than 3-4k if he even would </P>


and ive found that even pre 98 TA's cost a lot...its looking like a Z28 may be possible though cause they're more common i guess</P><edited><editID>Jugador</editID><editDate>37927.6736458333</editDate></edited>

Jugador, one thing to do if you have a limited budget, speaking from experience...</P>


Never buy a GM with over 80,000 miles, regardless of how well it's been maintained. This is for Camaro's and TA's only.</P>

jug, buy what you want, irregardless of anyone else. you will know when your in the right car, you will feel it.. the one thing i do hate about f-bodysis the long nose piece. in my dads ws6, the nose hits everything in new orleans.. my lowered mustang sits lower but doesnt scrape as much
