yep who knows some time this year i might find a LS1 and buy it so i got a LT1 and a LS1...... i would have had one earlier but the guy wouldnt negotiate on price.... 21,500$ on a 40k miles WS6 at a local used dealer, i like the car a lot but the guy would not even budge from it so i passed it up might try back in a few weeks when no one has bought it yet
