Default Got a new ride today guys!!

So I have had a 98 T/A for the last 4 years and just sold it a few weeks ago... didn't take me long before I missed that empty hole in the garage (You guys know how it goes lol) So I found this! It's a 2002 Camaro Z28 M6 with only 17k miles on it! I ended up taking it for $12,000 which I thought was a hell of a price! It's a hardtop with no factory power options, hurst shifter, monsoon system, and I absolutely LOVE the color! Not sure what it's called, I know it goes under something like 3 different names.

Anyways, so far lined up for her I've got simple bolt ons- intake/exhaust/UD pulley, Strano suspension setup, SS hood/spoiler and a set of TT2's powdercoated gunmetal with a chrome lip. After that who knows, but it should give me something to work on for a while.

Just wanted to share,

Thanks!

Yeah, it does look a little like SOM in the pictures but it isn't. I think it's called something like Medium Maroon Metallic (MMM).

Yeah, thanks guys! The color and the fact that it was a hard top with low low miles were the few biggest selling points to me

I do believe it's Monteray Maroon like stated above.
That's a hell of a steal. Should look awesome with the mods. Keep us posted!!

You could get some TTII's to go with the SS hood and spoiler and make it look like a Tom Henry Camaro from GMMG.
