I just bought a 4th Gen 5 speed!.....hooray for me!

Guys and Gals...I'm now offically a member of this forum..

my NEW car is a forest green 97 5speed with 98k miles with tan cloth interior. It already has clear corners up front, so next thing will be to clear the rear lights...I LUV the car except for the linked suspension in the rear, not like my 3rd GEN!...but so what this is faster...and a 5 speed.... I bought it from a dealership for 7500 with a warranty, but I haggled down from 10k on the car...I'm impressed, and so amped to start modding this one. I didn't sell my 3rd Gen, gave it to my sister...so its still in the family...still runs strong just gotta transfer my stereo system....

This is also my first owned 5 speed car...so any advice would be greatly appreciated.

thanx

Congrats!

Just get well practiced on manny-tranny driving ability so you don't have to face clutch replacement sooner than necessary.

Add gas, mod, & enjoy!!!!!

Save about $1000 incase your tranny bearings decide to go up on you.
