Default just picked up my first f-body!

Hi, I have been on here for a few months now & have been mainly in the classifieds looking for a nice LS ride. I was willing to travel cross country once I found the right one. A couple deals fell through, ones I was interested in but today I finally did get that one I was looking for. Its a black 2000 SS camaro, M6, immaculate ebony leather interior with absolutely no drivers seat bolster wear, chrome ZR1 wheels,posi with 3.42 gears, loaded with 111000 miles in pretty clean condition. I wanted one with headers & a few mods, preferrably silver, white, or NBM. This one only had crossdrilled rotors & altezza tails which I will soon be replacing with stock tails. I drove 120 miles to get the car. On the way back, I got pulled over for no plate & insurance. Got lucky, the cop let me go. I just got home so I will post up some pics later. The car rode really smooth & quiet coming home & got really good gas mileage, 130 miles on a lil over 1/4 tank. I am pretty happy with it.

Yep, thats the first thing I noticed as well when I went to look at the car. The tails & tips gotta go. I didnt say anything about the tips when I posted the pics, because I knew they dont even look like they belong on there. I posted the pics so you could see how ugly them things are. I knew you guys would say that. The guy I bought the car from liked the tips It will be getting LT headers & an ORY pipe as well very soon. I was wanting something with a lil lower miles but for the price its a very clean good running car.

The tails and the tips are a small price to pay for a nice ss.

Nice car man!!!

Get those tips and tails off and you got a sick *** car.

Welcome to the site and congrats.

The car looks nice and clean. Previous owner took good care of it by the way it looks under the hood. Again congrats.
