Majoring in Finance and Management. Want to do something along the lines of a Commercial Loan Officer.
I've saved up/invested a lot of money. Investment fund for house, car, and even retirement. (I'm a nerd at age 19, but what do you expect; my dad is a EVP/CFO of a bank - this **** has been instilled in me throughout my lifetime)
Right now I think I'm at around ~$35,000 for the car fund in investments. Should get me a nice used C6. Just waiting until after college. Can't even convince myself to sell my LT1 ws6. First car I fell in love with, ya know?

And yeah, my love for the car and how rare it is makes me never want to really sell it. Not too many clean LT1 F-body WS6's in my area anymore. Most of the 93-97 Lt1's are beat to ****. So I like the idea of being rare. It has also become a battle within myself when I do my build to see how much I can make out of the good ole LT1 AKA: boat anchor, LT-Won

I went to UTI and was done with that when I was like 20... I have had quicker cars than this and have also built faster cars, I use to have an 03 sunfire that I had fun with a lot and kinda got out of it for a while and now that im making fairly decent money im back in it and chose to go with a Z28. I have had a v6 camaro forever and that thing is a nightmare to make fast so its parked.
im not saying im the fast but this car is quick and on a good day yeah a bike would tear me up im not an idiot they are quick lil things but on that day it was different just like with every other race... ive suffered like 2 losses so far in this car and its a decent list

it is pretty awsome not belonging to the common lt1 crowd. most lts are not respected, but if you make one fast it turns heads quick. i dont consider mine fast. maybe quick. it still gets a decent amount of attention from the stockish mustang guys lookin to pick on an lt1. doesnt usually turn out well for those guys. i hope this affects your decision on whether or no to sell the ws6

The hardest beating of my life in a race was against a LT1. It was pretty ugly. Bad thing is I was in a 700rwhp Z06. Worse thing is, he didn't hit the 2nd stage. I was pretty happy until I found that out. 
You know when the car shows up on a flat bed, 15" wheels all around, no license plate, and the C16 burns your eyes when it fires up....you are going to have a bad night.

Who knows. The guy is very shady about what is told about the car. I know its proshifted T56 though and at every redlight when we were going out to race he would turn the car off. Oh and it was carbed. Looks pretty cool, it has a SS hood and everytime the car shifts the scoop lights up cause of the flame. The guy owns his own performance shop too so no telling.

I'm not 100% sure, no. Its a LT1 Camaro though and he claims its a LT1. But then again he had a "stock" 03 Cobra with nitrous.
