He sat at the light for 5 seconds so he wouldn't get kicked out for not having a cage. Then he ran an 8 second pass anyway, not realizing that he still ran 8s.

I've always had a soft spot for LTx SS's and that one looks very nice. Not $29K nice, though... Even with the LT4.

I think he meant to say its gone 13.3 and can reach a top speed of 165 MPH. I am with you Texfin, would love to find a mint LTx SS, but they hard to find and when you do, way overpriced.

Pretty sure 165 is reference to top speed, not 1/4 trap. Price seems o.k for a real LT4 car, don't see many come up for sale, some where in the mid 20s seems right, different kind of buyer. If it was a regular LT1 maybe low teens.

I live down the street from him, very nice ride. I'd agree top speed 165, not traps. Almost always garage kept.

Teens still too damm high for a 15 plus year old car. People are friggin nuts for what they think these cars are still worth. I love em too but damm I can buy a 06 gto for the price they are asking for a run of the mill 4th gen. I had a 96
SS that came in last week that WAS friggin mint. But the poor car fell victim to ghetto made me friggin sick. Guy only paid 5K for it out of austin and it had 22's, spray painted interior plastic, neon, and triple exhaust tips on each side. Sad part is he said he bought it all stock and was bragging about the upgrades he did. I cried as I put a new opti and plug wires and water pump on her then sent her back out to be de-flowered more.

Is this the same car?

http://www.mecum.com/auctions/lot_de...=KC1211-118947

Looks to be the same picture in both. But one claims that its car #95 and one is #62.

I think the one from dallas got the first picture from the link you posted. The other two look like he took.
