Default New from nebraska and my first ls1!

Well boys, i bought a 2002 z28 in texas and i drove it up from texas to nebraska on saturday.

this car is my first ls1 but not my first camaro. i had a 92 z28 g-92 car which i bought for 2800 and sold for 4250 (pretty good investment i'd say). Needless to say the LS1 blows the 3rd gen out of the water. its much faster, much nicer, much more comfotable and it gets much better mileage.

here are some pics

Go Huskers!

I live in Omaha. There are quite a few F-body guys in our area.

Who did your tint, and would you recommend them? I want to get mine tinted 20% all the way around, and the windshield 50%. I've had bad experiences with tint shops, so I'm hesitant to let anyone touch my prize possession.

Anyway nice camaro; I hope you realize the never-ending saga has just begun...

I got mine at Auto accents(238-2726) here in lincoln (50th and hwy 2) and i definately reccommend them. they guy was super nice (although he's got a cobra) and he gave me a pretty decent price, answered all my questions and he did fast work. i took my car in at about 2pm and he had it finished before 5:30pm the same day. and on top of allthat he drove me home when I dropped my car off.
