L98's are slower than LT1's, and the peanut gallery is right. For him vettes are overrated.










PS, my LS1 camaro is the slow car.

Vette's are so damn sexy. I love the look of them i love everything about them. I like the C4's but i would rather have the C5 Z06. The new C6's are speachless. Bump b/c vette's own.

I had an 89 for a while. My MPG averaged around 21-22 . The L98 is a torque monster. I think 1500 is a more realistic # for rubber. Otherwise normal wear-n-tear stuff isnt too expensive.

Was your car the one SS that was stolen? Just wondering.

Oh yes and vettes are sex. I would love to own a C5 z06, although if I was big baller I'd have to get a new c6 z06, even the regular ones are sex, I saw one the other day and about plowed into the back of a semi staring at its sexy ass end.

I average 16-18 MPG in my C6. I have a heavy foot and floor it all the time though.

I have only installed a B&B Route 66 exhaust system. My electronic cutouts should be arriving soon so that should acctually make the car sound like the beast it is.
