do you like it?
 
I don't understand what you mean by "what is under there?" It looks like your oil pan.



Sorry about the car man. I know you just got it after having a 1g n/t, and that makes it even worse.

Sorry i bought it like that for $1500
 
Looks like an oil pan to me? :confused:

If thats the only spot that got hit, then no you don't need a new tranny..I'd be worried about the motor and how long it was driven after this hit, cause all the oil would have definitely pissed out of a hole that size. drop the oil pan and inspect the internal damage there. If there isn't any and the motor wasn't driven long after that hit then you should be GOOD just to replace the oil pan.
