Sorry for pointless post, but I'm mad excited, I've had a deposit on it for over two weeks now, and it came today (Tuesday). My '96 RS is sold and will be gone in a week or so. No disrespect to the v6's, they are superb for what they are, but it just wasn't cuttin it anymore, and now I'm in the v8 club!

It's a dark metalic blue camaro 6spd, looks black in the dark... it came with an MTI lid/box, K&N, and aftermarket MAF sensor, w/ 48% more flow supposedly according ot the box. I want to put a Borla on it ASAP.

Even though gas is really high right now it will be worth every penny. Cause if your like me in the sense of that I love driving my 95 Z around you want even mind pumping that high dollar regular unleaded gas in. And also I have a bad habit of only putting $10 in at a time cause I hate pumping gas and at $1.59 a gallon that will only get around 155 miles on the tripometer.

Yeah Blue is the best color! and trust me your going to want to do alot of stuff once you get the bug

Joseph1082 · #10 03-10-2004, 01:39 AM

Well, I modded up my '96 RS fairly before I sold it... CAI, Exhaust, Strut bar, wires, plugs, LSD w/ 3.42s, rear disc breaks, front signals clear w/ xenon bulbs, neons inside at feet.
I am going to miss it very much, I have a lot of good memories attatched to that car. What else you guys think I should do, future wishes include Headers, Cam job.

Well, not many people know about them, but these things called "Blowers" can be a big HP increase, you should look into one.

Let me just say, You are a lucky bastard. Congrats on the new car man, that sounds like one hell of a ride you got there. Yes you have a lot of good memories in the V6 but I'm sure the V8 will be just as much if not more fun. Enjoy but be safe............. Lucky bastard

I live in the lower part of texas beside louisiana and you can still get gas for 1.49 to 1.59 depending on where you look. In the small town I live in it's 1.59. But thats for the regular unleaded. The premium grade is a whopping 1.71 a gallon.
