Question I need som advice!!!! PLEASE HELP!!!

Ok this is the deal...I have found 2 WS6's. I can get either one but do not know which is the better buy! These are the cars I found.

- 2000 Trans AM WS6 (Silver, M6) - 33K Interior and Exterior in awesome condition. No Traction Control. BMR Sway Bars. Hotchkis Springs. BMR Subframe Connectors. MTI Clear Lid. SLP Loudmouth exhuast. $17,500

- 2002 Trans AM WS6 (Red, M6) - 16k Interior and Exterior Like new. Flawless. Traction Control. Completely Stock. $21,144

With the 2000 being less $ and the 2002 having less Miles which one do you think is the better buy?

2000 WS6?

2002 WS6?

go with the 02 and try to work the price down, but with Red you will see more scratches than the Silver, Silver will always look good no matter how many swirls are in the paint. Congrats on any one you get

Silver's easy to take care of and attracts less attention than Arrest Me Red. Also, those suspension pieces on the '00 are a nice bonus

The '02 ... All stock, clean slate, only 17K miles, and an LS6 intake. When polished Red looks awsome.

2000. Already has a few mods done and is ~4k cheaper. 15k miles isn't going to mean much in the long run. Plus with the money saved you can buy your own LS6 intake, among other things.

Do you plan to mod it, or keep it mostly stock?
If your going to mod how far are you going to go?
Do you like the stance, handling, and sound of the 2000? If not, your going to change the stuff that makes it more appealing than the 2002.
To me the 02 sounds better simply because you will know the "what, how, and who" with every thing that is done to it. Congrats on either purchase.
