It could be at 80K it just needs new spark plugs, wires, a fuel filter and clean the MAF.

if the fuel filter hasnt been changed regularly that could def be it, all it takes is 1 or 2 tanks of shitty gas...

especially right after the ******* hurricanes, all the gas around here was full of all kinds of **** and I had to change the filter every 3,000 miles

Just a thought was the traction control on? If you couldn't spin the tires in a ls1 there is a problem. Go back make sure the TC is off bring it up to 5000 and drop it.

use that as some leverage to beat them up on the price of the car

the traction was off lol im not that new the dealer basically gave me and my buddy the keys and told us to be back in a hour so i got alot of time to experiment and the power was just not there the dealer told me they had a intake tube bent and the maf was dirty but you have to understand this car had no ***** i got back in my caviler and it felt faster than that

Could be a number of reason, carbon buildup, sludge from the terrible pcv system on these cars. Loss of compression.... of reason but the red flags are there for a buyer.... I wouldnt buy it unless it was one hell of a sweet deal and you want to work on it.
