Default New SS owner !!! Pics Added

Hello everybody. I've been driving a GMC Yukon for the past three years after I had to sell my 94 cobra. After about a two month search for a m6 ls1 I came across a 98 black SS, gray leather with 67k on the clock. The car has every option except ASR. (who needs that anyways). The car is not perfect but clean for 67k. It came with a borla cat back system witch sounds great. I ending up getting the car for 9k after talking the seller down because the a/c clutch needs fixed, i think. The a/c makes a loud sound when it is off but the sound goes away as soon as the a/c is turned on. The car drives great and is a big change from a 5.0 mustang. This seems to be one of the better ls1 sites on the web so I'm proud to join. I'm looking forward to enjoying my SS.

Sounds like you got an ok deal and a nice car, welcome to the site. It is probably the best LS1 site on the 'net. Yes, A car that pulls above 5K rpm is a change, isnt it?
