Sounds like a decent deal to me. With the current mods it might run high 12s. Put the 4.10s in and a stall and low 12s for sure. Horsepower I'd guess 320-335ish due to auto trans. Take some pics and post them if possible.

Sounds good but power wise and 1/4 is higher cuz it is a 6 speed
in an m6 with bolt ons mid 12s are easy sometimes low 12s with good rubber and driver. put the gears in and still get traction and hello low 12s btw nice car and it looks like a good deal

Just be careful, as along with the improved acceleration of the 4.10's, you also have accelerated explosion of your factory 10 bolt with 4.10s. The 4.10s are known to be a troublesome gearset in the fatory rearends, as they are very weak. Try 3.73's or leave the factory gears and save for a 9"/12bolt/S60 to replace your factory rear.

thats not a bad deal at all I paid 7000 for my z28 with 69000 on it at the time and it was stock. I have put in over 1000 and mine is still not a legit SS or as nice as that one. I would be all over that.
