Default WHICH WOULD YOU RATHER HAVE BETWEEN 2 73 SD TA'S

so which car would you take. both are numbers matching and are priced the same. both are 73 TRANS AM SD-455 automatic. both the same condition.

car 1: white, oxblood (burgandy) deluxe interior, tilt, a/c, am radio, hood bird, honeycomb wheels.

car 2, red, black standard interior, no a/c, am radio, nose bird, rallye 2 wheels.

Colored interior would be my first choice. Option # 1 for me. Nice dilemma to have.

Wow that's tough choice to make.

I would go with white/red interior car.

Either sounds nice.

I would take car number 1.

I prefer red cars, but it gets pretty hot here so a/c is mandatory.

Well, I had to make a decision matrix (preferences in bold):

Car 1
white
oxblood
DELUXE INTERIOR
a/c
hood bird
honeycombs wheels

Car 2
RED
BLACK
standard interior
NO A/C
NOSE BIRD
RALLY IIs

Easy. #2.

Except for my giving a slight tip to honeycombs, we think very much the same. Slight demerit for standard interior, but the other items make #2 hands down choice for me.

Not really a fan of white cars, or even red to a point, but no.1 with A/C, hood bird and honeycombs. Sounds more like a car where the owner knew how to tick boxes. If operational the A/C is a big factor, the rest can easily be swapped about, it's only money!

Jeannie or Samantha...

I'll take car #1 due to the deluxe interior and a/c (it gets hot around here).

Gotta agree with choice #1 since I have a Red '73 already.

Car 1. I really like red interiors in white f-body’s and I prefer honeycombs over rally wheels on 73-74. I saw a white 70 TA with red interior and thought it was super sharp

#1 for me.

To me a 73 needs a hood bird and honeycombs.
