Buy a 2008 LS3 M6 if you can find one for the price. I don't think you will, but if you do, go for it. I think you're going to have to raise your budget to $26-27K to get a decent 2008+ M6. But you can still get a good LS2 M6 for around your price range. But there were vast improvements made from the LS2 to the LS3.
