Very nice. The 6 speed swap . I'd buy it but I don't have a place to keep it.

I said screw it went to look at a Claret with Claret interior. I've always hated this color and interior in pics so never had an interest but went to see it in person.I tell you it looks much different in person. So I bought it . 55k mile L82 . Pick it up tomorrow. It's about a 9 out of 10 car. Has Long tube headers and a full dual exhaust. He kept all the emission parts.

I hope so. I really prefer a manual but it felt good. Never driven an L82 but it felt different than the L48. Tighter.

Nice car. I would check the date of the tires, before driving. I believe they were discontinued in about 2008.

Yes that was discussed right off the bat. I got the car home today. It feels like more than 230hp. Unfortunately the power steering slave assembley took a crap halfway home. Borgenson upgrade here I come...
