Default bye bye lt1...

I've given in to the light and bought an LS1 sorry guys lol. The good thing is I'm keeping my lt1 in the family and selling it to my brother.

GTFO ! J/K man enjoy the new ride. Selling to your brother could be a good or bad thing. Mine wanted to buy mine but i see the way he takes care of his cars and it would break my heart to see it all trashed

Man I gotta tell ya jumping into this car is so much different and nicer for a DD. Imo of course this car drives a hell of allot smoother and along w/ a 2000 comes all the perks. Its got ttops, cruse control, automatic headlights, my high beams and horn actually work, my trunk opener works, radio bottoms on steering wheel is nice, traction control is super nice (now I don't have to be scared of driving my z in the rain or snow), it is a hell of allot easier to put the power to the ground w/ the tq being up in the rpms. Over all I think I made a wise decision buying this ls1. Honestly I think my brother is going to buy one later on and we are going to build the lt1 for the drag strip.

Craigslist or auction. They are sooo cheap now. I bought one but sold it a while ago for 2500. All it needed was there was a dent in the quarter panel. I fixed the dent for 50 bucks ( it was a big one ) and sold it fo 6000. . I bought the trans am for about 6500

You guys need to show me where you get your deals... I'm most likely upping to a nice low mileage 99+ C5 with <40k miles and parting with my LT1

I guess it all depends what part of the country your in. I bought my 95 for 5k, but its a real immaculate 1 owner car. LSx's over here that are that cheap have a **** ton of miles on them and been rodded all to hell...
