Thats a pretty good deal. But I have to ask an obvious question…Didnt you sell your red car to choko because it was loud and attracted too much attention? How is this any different? In fact I would go as far as saying it would be worse. Also where is the land yacht lt1 project? ---

> [@Bsp TC](#): > > lol and gold is any better I dunno I have never thought of gold as a cop magnet color… Bottom line is I have always loved the 2nd Gen Trans Ams of the late 70s in gold and have always wanted a gold 4th gen… Its a very rare car color wise and worth fixing up and hanging onto… This isnt going to be a DD for me but more of a weekend toy, it probably wont see 3,000 miles next year… ---

congrats on the new car i guess but… didn’t you just sell the same car because you were getting ticketed so much? buying one with a louder color will solve that problem? i dont know your personal situations so it’s not my place to make assumptions on your motivations for getting this car and getting rid of the last one and such, but from what i remember reading you got harassed so much for the last one by cops you had to sell it…but now you completely contradict yourself. i dont get it… congrats regardless though, it’s always exciting having a new set of wheels in the driveway :tup: ---
