: 98 or 99? your opinion pleeze

Would you spend a couple extra grand for grey rims, carbon fiber back piece and different grill, or do you like the 98 better? Are there any other differences?
Thanks

Huh? There are clear tails for the 98. None for the 99 AFAIK.

this is sort of off topic but i'd buy a '93 classic and with the money saved get the fmax turbo kit... just my $.02

i think I'm gonna get the 98 and paint the rims grey.its just not worth more money to me. is the interior and suspension exactly the same? Does anyone know if the stock struts will hold up to pro kits or sportlines? Hows the stereo? I have a 91 classic with 156k on it and just want somethin newer.

i was driving my sister's red 99, and i saw another red one in a parking lot. the difference was that the other was automatic. i felt like i had the upper hand, then i realized i was driving my sisters car =(

98.. The grille+headlights are much better looking. Ad you can always go out and but the smoked rims,tail lights and rear "thing" from someone.

Stilleto,
I live in North Park. Are you from San Diego?

Ben, your car looks nice, if I was in Indiana i'd want to buy it.

Any one have aftermarket springs with stock struts?

well, not originally. i lived there 'tween 1990 and 2000. i am stationed in P'cola, FL currently. i lived in el cajon and la mesa. went to ecvhs and mesa college. i sure do miss it- the weather, the traffic (trust it's not that bad there), the entertainment. as a matter of fact i am currently running with the eibach pro-kit and stock struts. it's a bit harsh at first but you kinda get used to it. i am buying the AGX's next month, though.
