I found the car in my sig for $8k and 50k miles on it as is. I have done nothing but change the oil and new tires. it outran most f-bods in my area and pulled a respectable 12.90 before the high water did some damage. Now it has a 02 TA motor in it with a few mods. Back to the point it only has lowering kit, rims, and tint but continues to pull than its' share of attention from the strip to cruise in's. You can make the car as sweet as you want it. It is all about your taste, and not just a spoiler and hood like everyone else's.

I feel the exact same way - I don't care for the SS spoiler either, but damn if that hood isnt bad ***!

Brand new, I bought a Z28 because I had plans to mod the hell out of it, so the SS "collector value" was of no interest, and for the extra 4-5k I knew I could get a lot of other mods. Depends on whatever you can get the best deal on. If you can get an SS for the same price as a Z28, go for it!

Agreed.

The girl in your sig next to your car looks like the dog my friend hit last week after we went back to see if it was ok.

Geesh man, that is sort of harsh

Everyone is entitled to their opinions, I don't think the sig does her justice:





But of course, I am biased. She is no professional model, just a regular girl. Not everyone gets to date supermodels like you.

No sweat man, that sig is pretty new, based on your review looks like I need to revise it.

Julie is 36, we have been married 8 years, I think she still looks great, she is a great wife/mom and a decent bikini model, but like I said, I am biased! I'd like my sig to do her justice, if I can't, I just might drop the bikini pic. I didn't think it was that hideous, but perhaps I am wrong. I'll pm you my next attempt for a review :-)

don't do that just for some ****-headed foot-eater, the pic looks fine. I'm sure the dude was just being funny...sounds like something I might say but I'm a bit wiser nowadays and would have avoided insulting your wife or daughter probably there.

oh shut up.

Once again, I am sorry I called you out on a bad pic of your wife. anyways, I'm sure most would agree one of the larger pics you just posted would make for a better sig image.

Since were now critiquing wives - I say she's got way too much oil on. If it was a professional photo shoot, maybe it would work, but I think she'd look better less shined up. Nice body though...

Ok, this needs to get back on track or I bet it'll get locked...
