UPDATE! I got bored, so I put my stock 35th LE wheels on the car. I really like these better than the silver SS wheels:

Wow, nice HOSS. How many miles on it? If I ever purchase another LS1, it will definitely be a Hugger Orange Z28 or SS...But damn man, how in the heck do you afford all these?! I probably shouldn't talk though since I'll be looking to add one more 4th gen to the collection in my sig over the next year or so. Actually, I want a 30th Anniversary Arctic White w/ Hugger Orange stripes '97 6-speed SS...

Congrats on the new toy and be honest, what EXACTLY do you have planned for this car? Is it your new daily-driver?

Mike

Damn, that's quite the lineup. That's a pretty clean looking SS (the hugger one) I like it a lot.

nice... but I'm a little more open-minded myself. I would have a 03-04 Cobra or a Vette instead of a car I already have a copy of.

Damn! Are you trying to outgrow the new garage already?

When you're offshore are you bringing back any extra packages wrapped in plastic?

Nice collection!

NICE. I don't think the WS6 is his, but if I'm not mistaken, his wife has a blue one!

BLCKBRD: The red Trans Am is my Fiance's car. (Lisa). She posts here as Lisa Marie.

2000LS1Z28: 38K miles on the HOSS. It is my new daily driver, as I'm putting too many miles on the truck (20K in 7 months!). I'm thinking about putting a single turbo setup in the orange one. 600 rwhp or so, and daily-drivable. No concrete plans yet.

nice... but I'm a little more open-minded myself. I would have a 03-04 Cobra or a Vette instead of a car I already have a copy of.
I only paid $13.5K for this one. If you see an '03-04 Cobra with this low mileage for that price, let me know and I'll buy it too! I bought the orange one because I always wanted an orange one. When they first came out, my 98 Formula was less than a year old so I couldn't afford to trade it in and lose my *** on it.

Added new wheel photos to the original post, I put the 35th SS LE wheels on it today.
