Will do.. but it only as 65K miles on the six only been taken to the track twice it really doesn't get beat on I will be asking only $4000 but will have the stock wheels and tires I need to buy new rotors window and light motors and the O2's need replaced and I think the power steering pump is starting to take a poop on me its starting to make a little noise so hopefully it will be for sale by the end of this month

And thanks guys I'm to busy staring in awe then actually driving it.. The girlfriends car (2004 G35) gets beat on..lol

Forget the 13 sec 6. Now you have the opportunity for a 12-11 sec 8 in that firehawk.
You should be turnin low 13's to high 12's in that car the way it is. Have fun, run hard, and be safe!!
Congrats.

haha, i was talking about parting it out and exchanging for stock stuff...I could use some of your suspension stuff, and aftermarket parts add no resale value

Good move man, I've got a friend modding on a Caprice... He's making it fast for what it is but in the grand scheme of things 14's aren't the least bit fast and I wish he'd buy a lighter car.

Yes it's "neat" when someone makes a 13 second V6 but I'd rather be in a faster 8 cylinder car.
