Default Welcome to the family!

Congrats! Now get to work on getting the clear corners, black rear panel inlays, moulding delete, etc., etc., etc.

Anything done under the hood? Pics? Have you gotten sick of the Skip shift yet?

BTW, if you don't mind, how much did you pay? I'm just curious as to what M6 LS cars are running now a days.

Well i paid 10K with 58,000 miles. Not sure how that compairs to the rest of the US but around here, thats pretty reasonable. It has a Lid on it and a Magnaflow Catback. As far as i know these are the only mods. The skip shift doesnt bother me but maybe 10% of the time. Mainly when i want to get going suddenly. I got 26mpg this weekend driving up to my cabin and doing some reasonbly intense launches and other generally illegal things. (I'm still giddy coming from my second car 2000 SS Monte Carlo)

IMO that's a DAMN good deal, especially with the low miles. Over here on the left side of the state, they're at least 2k higher, if you could even find one with that amount of miles.

I thought the skip shift wouldn't bother me, but after a few days of driving mine, it drove me crazy. Fortunately it's cheap to get rid of.

Again, nice car, great deal!

Thanks alot guys. I love my car. I wasnt real big on the pewter to begin with, but it really grew on me. From what i see, you guys have a couple of nice cars as well. Although i dont think i've ever seen an F-body i didnt like. (with the exception of some of the v6 firebirds 93-97)

I See alot of stuff about clear corners on here, and am thinking about doing it myself. I saw them on ebay for like $20 but was worried about quality (like most things on freebay) Anyone tell me where they got theirs and if they are a good product.
