So on a local forum a fellow fbody guy has a 92 vette m6, 92k miles stock. it is fair/good condition, given it has its own cosmetic damages but overall it looks like a good car.

so i like my formula, its a 99 a4, 91k miles, longtubes, x pipe, lid, nice little system, with a ws9 raptor hood

what are peoples opinions on going back to an lt1, but its a corvette so I don't know what to do.

Vette:



my car:




its a tough decision to make, what should i do?

I think you would be crazy to go from your formula to a lt1 vette! Your formula looks 100 times better and should also be much quicker than the lt1 vette. In my opinion you would be downgrading.

my car has its little share of kinks, the infamous door crack, theres a slight scratch on the driver side bumper, leaks about 1/2 a quart of oil per oil change *probably rear main seal going out*

so i dont see it as being that great of a car, but i could be spoiled ha

Please... You'll have more trouble than that in the first month of owning that damned Vette. Didn't the M6 Vettes have the LT4 though?

Also, is it LEAKING? or is it just a little low? Its usual for a LS1 to burn a little oil. I believe it even says so in the manual.

i have oil on the garage floor, not a lot though its pretty small but i was also reading that rear main seals usually dont go bad but instead its some sort of bolts becoming loose...guess ill have to post about that so i can fix it

In 96 they did.

Are you getting money in return? I've always wanted to do a E/I/C C4 vette.

Just alittle extra.. In 92 car and driver tested a new 6spd vette. To 60 it took 5 second with a quarter mile of 13.6@104. Curb weight is 3,317lbs

no he wanted money actually since the blue book value of the vette is higher than the formula but i told him i have tasteful mods, a good hood, and a sound system to boot. also has chrome zr1s

blue book of my car says its 7900 *thinkin the economy has something to do with that price* where as the vette is like 8900 or something.

Tell him he thinks he's crazy. C4 market is in the crapper. DO NOT pay a penny over PP kbb.

For an extra no need car a C4 vette dropped on some nice rims would be a nice ride. But dont get rid of the formula.

just wanted something different and ive always wanted a corvette, i won a law suit which awards me with 10k, but i have to collect it first otherwise i would want to look for a c5

i'd only trade for a showroom condition like C4

I'd only go for a ZR-1 or Grand Sport. Thats the only C4s I like....

C4-cool back in the 80's when the A-Team was on. Other than that, LS-1 powered F car all way. I mean, are there actually people out there that think that a 'Vette, any 'Vette is hotter/sexier than a WS6 LS-1 bird?
