While at the bank signing for my 99 vette I got asked in the parking lot what year it was and told him 99 he couldnt believe it for nothing he swore it was a new vette. Then the next question how much is insurance. I say cheaper than my SS was. Last but not least have you gone 200 mph yet. People think just because its a vette it will do 200 mph. I clicked my speedo to kmh and took a pic at 200 and show it to them. In my 98 SS people told me it was fake because it had cloth interior and was a auto and a hardtop. So I guess all SS were leather ttop 6speeds I guess.

I always get told my car is breaking down because my cam... I run an ms3 with an SLP LM1 and LT's so yes it may sound like its going to die but you know you love it :]

I could have just kept it stock and pulled a vacuum line for the same effect though lol

Loud. Then the rear's mean look (lowered stance, 315s, flat black berger, GMMG catback, red powdercoated suspension)

The one thing I hate about having a loud car.....even when I'm going slow, like through parking lots, it SEEMS like I'm going fast, but in reality the mom in the soccer van and on her cell is the one speeding in the parking lot.

Easily the stripes. Next, it would probably be the exhaust growl when I'm cruising by in first gear at 3K RPMs.

I had a guy come up to me when I was filling up, "That's not stock, is it?" To which I replied, "No, sir, it is not." Old guy laughed. Pretty cool guy.
