Default Tough choice

00 SS or 01 WS6? Both red, 6 speed, TTop and have low 30k miles. WS6 is stock. SS has 12 bolt, full chassis add ons and full exhaust. SS is 13, WS6 is 11. I really like the TA's a bit better but the SS has all the right things done to it before the power was upped.

Besides many factors (especially condition) that are lacking in your description, a lot depends on who owned the car last. Was the last owner of the modded SS a younger person that drove it real hard? Was the WS6 owner an older adult by chance that drove his 'stock' baby easy? I sure would like to know.
If apples are to apples (all things truly equal) and not apples to oranges between the two cars, I would always choose the 'stock' car and then do what I want to do with it. In this case it is also $2,000 cheaper. So much more info is needed though to intelligently answer your question. The end choice is always yours but since you want opinions I would like more details. How many owners? Condition? Are the clutches OK? Any needs for either vehicle, like tires? Cars left outside or garaged for the past decade? So many scenarios. They all matter to me and they should to you too. That's a lot of $$ and you want to make the right choice.
