not really... thats like saying if the ls1's looked so good then they would not have stopped makin them in 02... or if the ls1's looked so good why was the mustang outselling the camaros by almost double...

i think the LT1 SS looks meaner but i like the sleek look of a ls1 also and it's easy performance upgrades!

You see an LT1 SS (when you actually SEE one): "Damn! That looks mean; now THAT is an SS!"

You see an LS1 SS (they are pretty much everywhere): "Neat....look at that Sebring....err....Camaro"

Both look good, but neither has really aged gracefully.

The LT1 versions of both the SS Camaro and WS6 Trans Am simply look better; but that' my opinion.

Overall performance and interiors (sans 97) are a different matter though....

Lt1 SS!! I've been around more LS1 SS cars and an LT1 ss is just awesome, much meaner looking but also clean.

I think the LT1 SS hood ONLY looks good on the LT1. The LS1 SS hood flows perfectly with the LS1 camaro. The only other hood I would put on my SS is the Sunoco hood.
