Default 95 Vette for my 02 ws6

Title says it all. His vette has an ls1 injectors, cat back exhaust, high flow cats and has 65k miles on it. Should I do it?

My personal opinion, i would look for a Vette that is a LS1 that has been modded. the one your talking about is the LT1 right?

I have a C4 and a Trans Am (mine happens to be black also) both are great cars.. the C4 your looking at would have a LT1 which you would have worry about optispark and water pump and on the other hand you have a LS1 trans am which I think is your better choice IMHO easy to tune easy to mod so many compatable parts and what i think is a nicer looking car. I wouldnt do a trade unless I was on the receiving end of upgrading i think this is a bit of a downgrade just my $.02

Heres the question, How many miles do you have on your WS6? is the Vette M6 or A4?

Absolutely no information (details) is given about either car and we are supposed to give an opinion??? Vague details result in worthless advice.
Condition sure would be nice to start with. Is your car ready for the scrap heap or still a sweet ride with low miles?

It's a C4. Unless you have a C4 fetish, why would you want to?

Because if he has over 100k on his WS6 it would be a decent trade if the C4 is M6. H/C M6 LT1 Vette is sweet.

I think you already know your answer since you asked this in the Firebird forum. Not too many Firebird owners that post in the Firebird forum are going to tell you to get the Vette.

Depends on what you want. If it was me and I could find a clean M6 C4 vette for trade. I would definitely consider it.

no way, vettes are dime a dozen where I live. I can go weeks without seeing another Trans Am. Pontiac is gone and they ain't making anymore 'official' T/A's anymore but vettes are pouring off the line. And you got the last year of a nostalgic car. Now if you were talking a viper, or something a little more exotic - maybe
