Who owns a stripper car?
Well, as we all know, us car guys are always planning our next buy. I think my next car will be a stripper. IDK why, but Ive always been atracted to plain ***, black hard top six speed 'camaro's with NO apperence mods what-so-****** ever. IDK why but I've always liked these so called 'strippers'
Now I was wondering about you guys with strippers, how are they on the day-to-day? Is it a pain in the *** to roll your windows down all the time? Do chicks look down upon your car lol? Do you wish you had a full optioned car?

i own a stripper.....honestly you get used to the manual windows and locks....the girls really could care less to tell you the truth. The funniest thing is when i go to our get togethers here in college station i am checkin out the guys cars with leather, t-tops, and every option under the sun and droolin. Then when they find out what i have everyone is checkin out my car and sayin how cool it is that i have a "stripper". So i'm all around happy with it!! I wouldn't mind having another car with full options but i will NEVER get rid of my STRIPPER!!

I thought i read somewhere that the power windows option was actually lighter than manual? Somthing to do with the lifting mechanism having more crap going on. Seems like it was in the weight reduction list or in the drag racing section or somthing?
I think i'll live with my key fob thank-ya-very-much!

Lets see, with a 1/4 tank of gas and an interior, my car will weigh in the 2,700lbs range this coming season. I know why I bought mine.
Having one is not a pain in the *** at all. They are economical, and a great base to build a fast car around.

I'm kinda the oposite, my Trans Am has a **** ton of options, my daily driver has a CD player and an auto trans as the only option really. Manual locks, windows, no tilt, manual seats, colum shift and no rear trunk release. Its fine, you get use to it, not bad, dont really ahve to worry about window motors and that kinda stuff.

we got a stripper SS. its a bit of a pita sometimes, like no rear defroster, and no cd player, but not too bad. it has the only power option it needs, the LS1. and its a hardtop to boot, so perfect race car basis. ive had many offers from people cause of it being a stripper hardtop.

The only option mine didn't have was the SS package...so I did what any sane person would do to a perfect low mileage car. I ripped it apart. Still looks beautiful on the outside, needs some lightweight carpet on the inside so it doesn't look so bare. "The devil made me do it."

Does anyone know what their hardtop strippers weight? I've seen in the high 3,200's and in the high 3,300's. I've been thinking about getting a stripper F Body somewhat soon, or waiting a few years after I graduate form college and trying to get an 02-03 EB Z06.
