so i've been a diehard lt1 fan for years - i have a 95 lt1 b4c car never saw duty M6 car shes got 184k on the clock. . . .
now i've got enough money at the momment to get a decent heads cam and a low miles shortblock. . . .thing is - i've also found two lsx fbodys that are pretty nice. . .
there's a red one i've come across M6 car 2000 very clean looks amazing great interior motor looks like you can eat off of it. . . .problem is the car has 152k on the clock and the ASR light wont turn off even if i hit the button (have no idea what that's about). wants 7G looks to be like an older person drove it on trips. . .cars completely stock aside from lid!
then i met a guy whos got a white SS with 74k on the clock wants about 8G for his problems with it are - front bumpers a little rough motors been modified unlike the red (slighly mostly boltons ect) it has no radio no catback and the interior was replaced with ws6 leather seats. . .it's an M6
all 3 are camaros all 3 have their highs and lows - discuss. . .i'm intrested in your thoughts, i'll probably end up keeping the lt1 if i can however so dont worry about that.

i'm leaning twords the red one only because the thing is bone stock down to the snow flakes. . .and i know of plenty of lsx guys throwing cams in these things at well over those miles. . .the car hands down looks like it has maybe 30k miles - the previous owner was **** about it i can tell. . .

agreed on what the red car is worth. . . .i'd rather have the white car due to personal intrest of colors the red one was just a little cleaner but of course looks can be more than what they really are . . . . and it's an m6 sorry thought i said that
oh i think it's actually in the for sale section of ls1 tech (the white one) very nice guy looks like it's about to get sold though. . .by the time i'd have everything settled to pick it up i'd imagine i'd be gone (that's another problem)

My advice is always to wait if you can afford to, and travel a little if the price is right.
The red car may be in good shape, but it's a little long in the tooth for $7,000. I've seen plenty clean, lower mile examples go for that price, give or take. The SS could be a decent deal if it's not ragged out. What's wrong with the bumper and where'd the radio go?
You're in Texas man! There ought to be plenty nice F-bodies for sale somewhere around there.
Don't buy in haste. Too many good buys out there, especially these days.
