Default I SAY BULLSH!t

My friend wants to by a T/A 2002 but the guy says that it's the last one ever built and it came with a LS2 because GM didn't have anymore LS1's. I personally think the guy is F.O.S.

I would call BS too, because 04 GTO's had the LS1, so I don't think GM "ran out" in 01 (year the 02 was actually built).

NO 2002 T/A'S OR EARLIER came with an engine that did not exist at that time....unless it was a 1 of 1 TIME TRAVELLER Car.

Some came with the LS6 block or something like that which really had no performance advantage over the LS1 block. There's a sticky somewhere on this.

This person is either ill informed...or just has a problem telling the truth. I'd offer him $10,000 less than he's asking though, since his engine has gone back in time. Everyone knows ya don't get too many time travel jumps before the flux capacitor goes out in these things. Ticking timebomb man.
