i am looking for a new car, looking to spend around $10,000. i am trying to decide between a 97 w/ ws6 package or 00 trans am. overall preformanceand suspension does the ws6 have any advantage? any suggustions would help. or maybe a 00 SS would be the best deal? thanks.

 

there is no comparison. Get the '00 Trans Am and don't look back...

 

'00 Trans Am - hands down. It'll absolutely SMOKE a stock '97 WS6 and with a few mods, it's going to be WAY faster.

 

Yeah mod for mod the 2000 is going to be so much faster. A full bolt on LT1 might be a little faster then a stock LS1. I have seen full bolt on LS1 cars in the 11's. Its a much better motor and the aftermarket is just insane right now. LT1 LS1

 

2000 T/a Ftw!!

 

2000 TA gets my vote as well.

 

unless then 97 is a lt4(RARE!) get the ls1.

 

ls1 all the way.

 

LS1 is the only way to go. Forget about that damn optispark crap!!

 

ls1 all the way. the lt1 just can't hang. still a great car, but performance wise...no contest.

 

Just an FYI, there are no LT4 WS6 cars. LT4 was only put into a limited amount of Camaro SSs and Firehawks.

Get the '00 car. Do it.

 

'00 LS1 T/A hands down

 

You might not find a '00 SS for 10 grand, but possibly a mid-to-high mileage trans am if thats what your looking for. I picked up my 99 formula with 34,000 miles for 10 grand even. But that was a deal cause the guy was moving to australia in a week and needed to get rid of it. You want the LS1 car. Even if you can't find one for 10k, i recommend spending the little bit extra to get an LS1 car (98-02) rather than the LT1.

 

ls1 for sure all aluminum and more power to begin with. I have both a lt1 car and a 00ws6 and i like the 00ws6 better . . . potential !!!

 

Get the 00 TA

 

ls1 hands down... i've had plenty of both its the only way to go

 

ls1 ftw!

 

It depends.... Do you want to be like Sgt. Spuds or Like us normal folk

 

...any 98 or newer f-body. Any 97 and older just turn away.


Peace,
Craig.

 

Don't think you will see any LT1 votes in here
