Default newb...i had no idea!

well i used to have a bmw 328 which i thought was fast...key word..thought....i lent it to my sister for the weekend and it comes home completely totalled..i was scheduled to move states in less than 5 days so i got on autotrader and started looking. basicly looking for power. i either wanted an 00-04 gt mustang or a 00-02 camaro..thinking they were about the same speed. I went and looked at about 3 cars and ended up with a 2001 camaro z28. ILOVE LS1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!i had no idea how badass these things were stock. So its been about a month now and i have intake exauhst and oh yea a tnt100wet shot. but its easy to say the ls1 is my new girlfriend

I always had mustangs since I was a kid..
Tho I still favor the fox-body style as far as stangs go, as soon as I got behind the wheel of my LS1 I have never looked back. They make mustangs look like toys
