Got a new DD
Got a new DD I just picked this up friday. 160K miles bone stock A4 with 2.73's. Bought it from the second owner. Clean, could use a drivers seat and a tune up and some paint work but I got a great deal on it. It runs great, no leaks as far as I can tell; I'm gonna drive the hell out of this thing while I do some surgery on my vette(Cam and possibly some heads) . Only pic I currently have (The car is at my brothers in Jacksonville until I can get the tag next week.) The car was driven by a 62 year old woman, who has had it since 2003.
I'm not sure yet what I am going to do with it, probably just a lid and catback for now, maybe later LS6 intake and headers. Nothing major, I don't want to pop the 10 bolt or the trans.
nice find! I miss my 2.73's sometimes lol. If you're looking to make it quicker, skip the ls6 intake and put a converter in it. I dropped over a full second off my ET after swapping converters. Makes it a lot more fun to drive around on the street, too.
If I get a converter for the Camaro Ill be putting my foot into it all the time. I used to have a Cammed 98 WS6 with a 3600 stall so I'm no stranger to the joys of a stalled auto. The 2.73's are nice for the highway driving I do every day
nice find!
i picked up my z28 for $2400 with a 6 speed and new tires

but motor had been changed just before 60k due to spun rod bearing

Yeah the deals are out there, you just gotta keep looking. This car has new tires, new AC components and new window motors. The only real issues are the trans mount being broke, needs a fuel filter and tune up, and the starter is misaligned. Looks like I got my day off project for monday lol

. Least the 4th gen has got some 2.73's LOL I didn't want to drive something boring. The vette actually gets around 19 in town if I drive it easy and 28 on the highway. We shall see what the Z28 gets after I get it squared away
Yea. When it was $3800 i offered her 3000 cash and she said i low balled her. Looks like she should have taken my offer. Then my cousin was gonna give her $2400 when she dropped price and she said to low. Looks like she cut throat herself twice.

Holy crap that vette rides out those mpg's. That will be hard to beat. If you actually want to save gas, trust me, DO NOT stall it lol. But it is SO much more fun with one. When are you comming to get it? I'm trying to get a meet going for tonight at sonic or wherever

I used to have a cammed/geared/stalled WS6.... 14MPG around town and 20 on the highway lol. That was back when gas was still 1.80 a gallon though.
Seriously, I'm on #8 now. This is my 6th LS1 car and I had 2 LT1 cars.
right there with ya. I've got a 2002 honda civic si for a daily driver, I've put less than 50 miles on it in the past 6 months. I ******* hate driving 4 cylinders, and hate driving stick even more lol. So if you know anybody that wants to buy a Honda....

Lol damn man thats alot. I probably should have got a car for a dd, but I guess saving gas wasnt at the top of the list when I bought the Trailblazer. And no car could tow my car, so I guess that was higher on the list than saving gas. Plus i wanted a 4x4
I love riding bikes, used to have a rm250 .030 over, that I rode all the time on trails and in construction zones around me, but I feel like there are too many bad drivers on the street to feel comfortable. But, god are streetbikes fun
