Dad would murder my *** if i brought home a ford, and it would be a project just to keep the damn thing running.

I did just look at evo's and they are coming down in price hella fast like one on ebay was 20k. That one for josh is a euro spec evo 7 which is all around bad ***.

Someone also suggested an srt4 which was odd because they are like 15k with under 50k but **** its a neon. But they can take some abuse and I dont want 2 FWD cars that just spin.

Greg you want to meet up with fisher and I somewhere?

Iroc lol youz a funni 1. and put what in?

BMW's arent out, the is300 is an option, evo is an option, I dont know any other v8 that is fairly new. I need more options I'm looking at vette's but I want the Targa top (I've always wanted a car with a targa for some flamboyant reason) But they are all auto that I have seen so far.

the LS1......lol yeah the SRT-4s are cool little neons in my opinion but FWD cars aren't all that good at the track they damn near break youre wrist when trying to come out of a turn fast not that I've had any experience with this but evos are fast and pretty good looking if you ask me

this kid is trying to sell that car again i guess, for the 2nd time... those 38k miles were extremely hard miles from what i hear... nitrous, cams, all that good stuff... thing is damn quick though.

ya the targa tops are sweet, and auto vettes are gay. i would love to have a vette, but i'd go with the c5 zo6, classy, good looking, potential, and tons of cool points.

Yeah I saw him driving that today and it sounded purely like ***. I will never buy a modded car like that. I am currently looking at the toy box GTO's right now though they seem decent and moderately priced an 03 is 15k with under 40k miles. So I may end up with one of those, ill have to see what matt says.

ya, but that firehawk also was DD for a while, and has 32k miles on it... there were 6 made from SLP, and the 98's dont actually have the firehawk wu6 code, and because of the original headlight design they werent able to approve the crash tests in time to make the 98 production year, but SLP still had 6 made for shows and what not, and somehow one was totaled, and another got out of there hands, and turned up in some guys garage who had no idea how rare it was... then he heard about it, drove across the country to SLP to make sure it was authentic, and they gave him the certificate and the owner of SLP signed it, and now he knows how rare it is... 1 of 5

So I would end up with an LS1 anyway seeing how the LS2 made its debut in 05 and I dont want to even think about how much insurance will be for an 05 let alone an 03.

if your considering an ls1 now, you might as well look at camaros/ta's/firebirds now, you can find those cheap these days. if you want to be "different", theres always a firebird formula, only one who has one of those is chris, and that is now a drag car lol

if you did get an ls1, for say... 8-9k you have 6-7k to do whatever with... nice cam setup/full bolt ons, or a nice safe turbo kit/sc
