I took the other one back this morning. They have a 02 with 14k miles on it that I should be picking up tomorrow afternoon. Its black with grey interior, Carbon Steering wheel, and the carbon package (matches fkn PERFECT with the leather), some 19" 3-piece wheel (Not sure the brand, its got a serial # inside, along with a brand name, but it was hard to see on the lift) also has some 305/30/19 PS2's, and a built in Passport radar. I have a list of like 15+ things that we discovered wrong with the car last night. The salesman is one of the managers and was upset that nobody caught it. He had them put this one on the lift for me and pull all the service records they can find, etc.
I made a post and it did not make sense, only reason why Tony can see it is because I deleted it. I know Tony could get himself a Porsche if he wanted to, but ever since I've known him (going on 7 years) hes had a LS1 of some sort.
As to the guy who said something about a C6 with a turbo or a procharger.. I do not want another modified car. At the house we have a 8sec LS1 Camaro and an N/A LS2 427 Vette (10.55 car letting out), I've been there done that with speed. Think about it like this.. Buy a new C6, for lets say $40k out the door (i know its almost impossible, but you have to meet my dad), get a APS kit, your cost is about $10k-$14k installed, then because your going to need it a clutch and a built rear-end and diff. brace and install about another $5k or so. Then well **** it, you don't know how I go with cars the stock motor is going to **** out.. New 408 (id do iron cause its stronger) with heads and cam.. Installed about another 13k or so.. Then a fuel system and tune... 2k-3k. Again thats just a guess and if you've built something fast you know that there are a billion nickel and dime things. Then its probably going to break **** all the time.. I know because I deal with it everyday.

Craig.

The black one looks better! Just keep it waxed with several coats, water will bead off of it and it will stay cleaner, longer.
and, quit lying about not modifying it. You know you can't leave **** alone, whether it is a Camaro or a Porsche, haha.

Of course when it comes time to get a new car it is the worst weather you can think of, but it is good FI weather if it stays dry
