Anyway, I would disagree with all of the opinions to put it away and never drive it.

These cars were meant to be enjoyed and driven hard.

I couldn't blame you for wanting to keep it perfect though.
well if he paid around $25,000 he got a good deal, if he paid less than that he got a bargain!!!

Having a car like that and not driving it, is like being married to the girl of your dreams and never ever having sex with her........

Wow, nice color! Well it is really up to you and how you feel about the car. I know it would be hard to put miles on it and irreversible mods, but the car is yours, so only you can decide why you own it. If you are planning on keeping it for the rest of your life, you can have a bad *** story of how you bought it to tell everyone, and the mods on it that you will enjoy. If you love your beautiful car and want to enjoy it for the rest of your life, then I think you will do what you want to do to enjoy your car. Or if you are thinking about selling it to make money in the future, thats another story. You are definately lucky to find that beautiful car!

i say mod it, but make sure you can take it back to 100% stock if you need to.

do you have another car? if i were you id only pull it out for veeeeeeeeeeeeeeery special occasions or a sunday morning cruise every once in a while. nice car man. its a shame you're torn between driving it and babying it.

Sweet find, nice car man. Don't take this the wrong way. I couldn't have bought that car. I was actually glad mine wasn't perfect when I bought it, because I like driving the hell out of it! But more power to you if you can baby it and store it. No way I would have bought it without having another LS1 to play with though. But hey man, enjoy it, take care of it, and keep it spotless. In that shape the car should be worth a ton of money someday I think...unless you put miles on it, so don't! Oh and yeah, of course, leave it stock!
