Manhattan Trans Am
About this Current Vehicle:
Hello, my name is Malachi. I live in the Corpus Christi area of Texas. My car is a 1999 Trans Am, Medium Blue Metallic in color. I bought this car in April of '09 for 8k from a guy in the navy who was being deployed to Japan with 85k on the odometer. It's a factory 6spd RPO Code MN6 on the door tag. I've read and heard that only 1 car rolled out of the factory MBM & 6spd, but IDK if I believe that. It would be awesome to have a 1 of 1 car, but I find it hard to believe that only 1 person ordered a MBM/6spd combo. And since I haven't been able to find any production numbers who really knows. I've also researched the color and have been able to find that 2 - 400 we made in MBM. It has a LS6 7.0L 427ci Stroker that was built by Motorsport Technologies Inc. out of Houston Texas in '02/'03. I am the 4th owner. It's an older build but it still drives and runs like new, and boy does it RUN!!

Got Lights
Left Portland to Austin on the 15th to pick up some new tail lights for 200$. Filled up for about 35$ on 93 octane, cruised about 70mph @ 2k rpm in 5th gear the whole way and made it up there on 1/2 tank. It's a 6spd with 2.73's. 6th gear will do about 100 @ 2k rpm. Speddo isn't recalibrated for the gears so it shows about 10mph slower than what im actually doin'.
