Default Want to buy ws6 in a few months! Help me find

Will probably be getting my pay back in a few months and loved the c5 zo6 I had but there is just something about a ws6. I dont know what it is. Ill be looking to pickup a MINT 02 ws6 in silver, white, or sunset. Car needs to great shape and under 40k miles. Also needs to be a 6 speed. Dont care if the car is bone stock to heavily modded already. I plane to make a 500-600 hp forced induction car for fun street driving. Let me know if you are planning to sell or know of any cars available. Just looking on here and on autotrader I dont see anything right now. Thanks guys.

Honestly don't be afraid of a few miles if the car is clean, I wouldn't buy one over 100k though. But I picked up mine with 89k and it's mint.

ya. I agree. I rarly see a nice nice one rolling around anymore. Just something about having a car that isnt made anymore. Esp having the last year like a 02. I want to get one..pay it off...and keep it along time and do mods here and there. The vette stretched my budget just alittle to much.

That's the thing about mint WS6's. They have become worth a mint.

But, yes, the styling of them is some of the best that GM has done on a vehicle.

You work at Main Street, right? If so, I saw your red WS6 parked out front today when I was at Whataburger.

The WS6 and Firehawk are awesome.

Run away from emmonds... I bought my mustang from them and honestly have nothing good to say about them. They price is tempting but veer away. I bought my mustang from them and it was supposivly in perfect condition and in no accidents. Several months later it turns out I found out that it was in an accident. Looks like it's been in a fender bender of some sort. Just looks like it had a new bumper replaced...

I then change the oil and 1,000 miles later I spun a rod. I needed to get a new engine. The oil was seeping out from the exhaust and I had no idea. Emmonds wanted nothing to do with it and blamed it all on me... Saying that it is my fault for not having a mechanic inspect it after I bought it in, according to them "perfect condition".

That white one at emmons has been sold for about 4 weeks now...or at least thats what they told me. The whole fact of having to make an appointment to even view a car with them just seems ridiculous to me.

Sorry you guys feel that way. I have known them for about 14 years and they have always been totally honest. As a matter of fact, I have only heard two bad things about them and they are here in this thread, back to back.

Yup that's me, finally someone saw me! You weren't the guy in the Mustang were you?

That white one is nice but too much for what it is, though the rims do help.

Check autotrader, I found a few that match what you want.

Because dumb *** people buy them. I picked mine up off autotrader and took a shot in the dark since it looks like a drag car (cut roll cage, SFC's, shift light etc) but I haven't had any problems and even has a 12 bolt. Paid $10k after TTL.
