Thanks. When I had my 97 I would always get, those things are way to heavy to be fast. And “most” of the time I would end up giving them a good run for there money. After that they had a little more respect. I love them though.

you’re getting turbz or S/C or something for the vette right?

6K=beater car that is more reliable than a VR4 and some sort of forced induction or heads/cam/nitrous for the Vette.

The only VR4’s that are not reliable are the ones that are modded by idiots or that are not maintained. This one is neither of the above.

AWD, 6-Speed, FI, = very fun car, winter or not.

Thanks for your opinion though!

Honestly, I am sick of driving a nice car 5 months out of the year and the following seven driving a rusted POS. This gives me an awesome car to drive during the winter. Hell I would be happy with it as a summer car too!

Exactly. I know plenty of people who make crazy power, DD theirs, etc. without issue. But, any abused car that is a bitch to work on is subject to these tales.

The same with DSMs…
