Default My true first car

I've been driving for a few years now, but never actually had my own car. As you can tell by my join date, I've wanted a LS1 for years now.

Here she is, a 1998 Z28 M6. Has 159k cared for miles. Picked her up for $5000.

No mods, just a Flowmaster mufflers (sound decent, flow blows) and Z06 wheels.

More pics will come. Yeah, it's a lot of miles, but the fellas here have told me that as long as it's running healthy, a LS1 lasts.

Looks clean. Great buy.

What to haul with a hitch? How about a small trailer with your race tires, jack, and a small tool box? Take to an Autocross or the strip. Would be perfect!

Or if you want to be real redneck, I have seen one around here pulling a 12' john boat.

The motor hauls ***. Idles smooth, no oil burning, ignites instantly in the cold morning.
