I need to make a damn seperate thread on this now!!!

Any way, I was looking at starting my asking price around $4,000.00

I know, I need to retract my statement of cheap.

Sounds like a nice car, I would always be scarred of it getting stolen.

Thanks, if you happen to know of anyone that is interested please let me know. Chico isn't to far for me to come down to Sac or Stockton to meet halfway to show the car. Do keep in mind there is some cosmetic damage as previously listed. It's been a good car since I bought it in 2001 to go to college with, now I think I have to get rid of it.

Oh and I forgot, I have Most stock components including wheels and tires that will go to the new owner.

Shane's GTslow (04blackgmc) was pretty sick. He put bags in the back to cut down on the wheel hop when he launched it. That thing was pretty sick. I was at his house for the first start up with the cam . . . .

I have a bunch of buddies with them, and I would definately go for it. Get the LS2 and with headers, intake, cam, and drag radials you'll be set!

Talking I took the Plunge!!!!

That's right, I finally did it! Bought the car this afternoon! 2006 Spice Red Metallic, manual, factory 18"s. Interior is immaculate! Exterior is as well, but I can see a bit of swirl in the clear coat. Overall a slick car for having 51,650 miles on it! The seller was absolutely the best possible guy to buy a car from! I just got it home from the Credit Union, and now it's time to get some sleep.

Here's a photo for your viewing pleasure. I will get more up this weekend when I get a chance to get the bugs off it from the drive home.
