the person selling the vert says you need the bumper repainted and the guy selling the SS races it (he posted a track time). id check out the SS first and see how it sounds. check out CL and cars.com

I've never been a fan of convertibles. I'd go with the Camaro.

I would say shop around and go for a T-top SS. They'll be more cars around. If your looking to impress the ladies buy a C5.

convertables are pretty girly/ugly. Hardtop for sure.

I never understood people that wanted to put a giant piece of fabric with an ugly visible frame on a car. Looks like ****.

i only said that because someone thought it was a true ws6. but still, id pick that one hands down over the other 2. same price range, lower mileage, t-tops (right inbetween a hardtop and a vert for the OP),.

heres the link again for the OP

T-Tops are the best of both worlds, but between the two I would get the SS.

Center mount exhaust is cool, and unless its a 69 Camaro I would never buy a vert.

http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail...eadExists=true
http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail...eadExists=true

white one: get rid of the body kit and wheels and youll have yourself a steal at $6400
nbm one: at 10k and includes lt's, exhaust, and tune, i wish i had this over my t/a right now


seriously, hop on this sh*t now if you want a sweet deal. i wouldnt doubt it if some other person on ls1tech is calling up one of the guys right now!!!


PS- someone get me a job as a car salesman on long island
