Default 4 LS cars which one should I buy? Check it

I sold my LT1 B4C car today and now I am on to a LS1 Powered car. Below are my narrowed down choices. This will be a weekend driver and that is it. I will keep the car a Year and than get something else. Which car would you Buy? Remember that resale is important.

Car # 1
2002 Z28 A4 Conv. Black on Black on Black 13,500 Miles $15,900

Car #2
1999 Z28 A4 Conv. White on white on white 21, 000 Miles $11,500 (Bought for $10,900 and it's close) Photos further down in the thread.

Car # 3
1998 TA M6 Conv. White, Black top, white Interior. 17, 000 miles $11,500

Car # 4

1998 Camaro SS A4 T tops 9,200 miles one owner all receipts of an install done right using a Vortech Polished air to water running 9PSi making 490RWHP. Car still has the orginal Tires and Battery. Car has never been to the track because the owner said if he put slicks on the car that he could say goodbye to the rear end. $17,000

If you know of a low milage car like one of the above, send me a PM with the Info. I Next week. Cas in hand!


Let me know what you the expert LS1 guys and gals think.

Thanks, Greg

I know, I want # 4 but the KBB sucks on # 4. That's my big problem with #4.

I'd go with the stick car. Autos are NOT my thing. I hate them for a street car. On a pure track car they have advantages but I think I would still have a manual just because I am hard headed and like breaking things.

4 or 1, simply 1 because if someone is wanting to get a loan, they are going to have a hell of a lot easier time getting one on an 02 instead of a 98.

I'd offer 15 for car 4. Not worth 17k IMO.

Guys, thanks for the replies. I am not going with the 98 SS that is Supercharged. For anyone that wants the car, go to cars.com and you can find it. The guy will not sell it for a penny less that 17K. He put the Vortech blower on it 2000.

I am going to go with one of the other cars and put a twin intercooled Procharger system on it. I am a dealer for Procharger.
I will pay cost for the kit and my friend will install it for $500.00. Than I know it has not had the **** run out of it and that it is properly tuned to be safe.
