Ok, this is getting repetitive.
My last topic fizzled, the 00 Z28 sold a day before I was gonna go back a second time to try and talk the price down again. Oh well, it was one of my least favorite colors and not a T-top anyway. But I think I found a gem this time.
This guys over 100 miles from me, so as badly as I'd like to go see it I can't really. I've got 5k in cash now, and he wants 10,500 for it. I'm trying to figure out the best way to get the other 5,500, as taking a loan out apparently isnt too feasable with my credit. 1998 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 T-Tops 63k miles Auto Stage-1 Ported Heads w/918 springs SY3500 Stall Convertor 3.73 Gears Alum Driveshaft Granatelli MAF K&N Lid Cam 224/224 .570/.570 112ls 2001 Exhaust Manifolds & Cats Dynomax Catback, There is an Exhaust Cutout with wing nuts so you can have open exhaust at the track ASP under drive pullys LS6 ported oil pump EGR Mod Ported Throttle Body 160 thermostat Throttle body Coolent Bypass Mod Tranny cooler Transgo shift kit fast toys ram air TA Rearend Girdle Tubular Subframe Connectors (welded) Hotchkis Lower Control Arms Strut Tower Brace Pioneer AM/FM CD Brand new 16" chrome wheels and new tires Tuned with HP Tuners On 4/21/05 ran 8.06 @ 86.43 MPH in the 1/8 mile at Irwindale Dragstrip. What do you guys think?

Re: Ok, this is getting repetitive.
Go to the bank where you have a checking account show them the vin, pic's, and other info on the car and apply for the loan there. (If you don't have a checking account go get one). If they aren't total A-Holes they should be willing to finance 50%... IF the blue book is what you're going to pay. They may crucify you with a high rate (10% - 12%), but with bad credit... Pay the damn thing off as soon as you can (add $20, $30, $50 buck to each payment) and that'll help establish you as decent credit risk and open some doors for you.
You can always get a damn credit card and do it, but at 27.5% you'd be way better off at a bank. Besides, if they won't finance the deal that should be a good clue that you getting screwed on the car. Good Luck.

Re: Ok, this is getting repetitive.
Yea, I was thinkin the same thing (about the car being abused), he claims he only took it to the track once, but, I mean not like there's anyway he can prove it, and I'm sure it was driven hard on the streets. But still, these LS1's are really built to last aren't they?

Re: Ok, this is getting repetitive.
Like these guys said. This maro's probably EARNED every mile on it... you don't do all those mods and then drive it like a granny. You BETTER see this thing in person and look it over real good before you agree on anything.
By the way... Since when in the hell is all this bullshit about 1/8 miles times getting popular? Who the hell cares what the 1/8 mile time is? I've only heard about 1/4 miles times until recently. and as far as I'm concerned 8.06 in 1/8 of a mile = at least 16.12 seconds in 1/4 mile.., pretty shitty. Fastest acceleration is in 1st and 2nd - if a 12 second 1/4 is good, you better be looking at like a 6 second 1/8 to have anything to brag about... right?

 Nfg2184, are you interested in 3rd gens? Can be had much cheaper and less hassle. With 5,500, you should be able to get one in great shape, with a 350 Tpi.
