Default Bought a 96 SS - What do ya think? *Pics*

Just bought a Polo Green 1996 Camaro SS. I had a 383 Z28 that was kind of an expensive daily driver and it was starting to drain my bank. I decided to go with a stock car for a daily driver and I'm going to build up a "v6" in to a track car .

Only mods done-
Eibach Sportline kit
!CAGS
fourthcircledesigns CAMARO inserts
fourthcircledesigns RamAir decals
20% tint
Custom system

I may throw some wheels on it and leave it at that. My current boss did the lowering, tint, and system and I did the decals. It's a 2 owner car with 67,500 miles. The owner before me bought it with 11,000 miles and babied it. It's been garaged, never abused, really taken care of.

Paid $9,750 for it as is. Had 66,900. I've put on 600 miles so far.. 2 trips to the track an hour away to watch and some cruising really adds up!















Don't mind the plate frame.. the guy got it as a joke and gave it to me as a joke . It's getting removed as soon as I put the real tag on it, don't need stereotyped. It holds the paper down well for now, though. Let me knwo what you think

Good looking car. Im not the biggest fan of the 93-97 Camaros, but that one looks pretty good. I like the system set up in the back. Very clean and it looks like it puts out some sound. Enjoy it!

Nice 96-SS, and pretty rare too. Appears to be 100% stock, even the exhaust. I would take off the ram-air decals, the hood looks good without it.

I just put on the RamAir decals today, not sure if I like them yet or not. Won't be too hard to peel off if I decide against them.

Everything else on the car is stock, manifolds, cats, exhaust, etc.

Sub setup does not flip foward which kind of sucks. The cover panel will come off and you can take the box out fairly easy leaving the amps there and it is not so bad.

Nice LT1.

The only thing i don't like is the tire gap difference between the front and rear, looks like the front needs to be down a little more.

Sharp car, congrats.

You posted "Bought a 96 SS - What do ya think?", and you put it in the LS1 newbie tech forum

I think its a sweet car, but it should be posted where it belongs, not in an LS1 owners forum.

There's an appearance section or even the multimedia exchange section that this would probably fit better in, rather the new LS1 owners newbie tech.

Not that huge of a deal, but it does bug me to see things like "battery went dead, need help" in the Forced Induction forum, or "What clutch should I get" in the appearance section.

The forums are correctly labeled, and its nice to see threads where they belong is all.

The guy bought a nice SS LT1 and put it in a new car owners forum. Its labeled 'New LS1 Owners' but the LS1's older brother is more then welcome in this type of forum.
And who the **** are who to call the shots, or say what goes where?

Its the perfect place to post up his new ride. You have no business to say otherwise, and your comparisons are so off the wall, it makes you look like your on drugs or something.
Go somewhere else with your bullshit please.

If I was a mod I would have deleted your posts for ruining a good thread about someone's nice new Fbody.
