heyy.... i've become mighty torn between car options... i have 20,000 dollars to spend on a car in like 2 weeks, but i'm mighty torn between 4 types hah, i've always planned on doing up my blazer when i got this money, but i wrecked it last winter and it didnt quite workout the way i wanted, i came close to getting a White s10 Xtreme, but wasnt sure if the 4banger was what i realyl wanted, i've also looked acouple camaros the past few weeks a red 97 convertable z28 w/ black vette rims, a 99 Black ls1 6speed, w/ ram air hood, and a 96 camaro z28 with the jointed magnaflow exhausti n teh back, which has a hell of a roar to it... i live in NY , and its almost winter, which i know is a huge factor, my dad doesnt want me getting a camaro cuz of winter right around the corner, but idont wanna ruin the rest of my year ( spring and summer ), just for one season that sucks haha... so i'm really torn between the options i have... i'm not asking for u guys to spend my money for me lol, i just want suggestions, alot of u have seen nice cars go bad i'm sure, i just very open for suggestions =)

well if its between them I would get the 99 with ls1 and 6 spd and spend a few grand on a good winter vehicle. But thats if you have room for that, but if you dont you can rent storage for the camaro for the winter.

well i get 20 , and the 99 ls1 was suprisingly only 7500 bucks, it had alot of miles on it tho... it had somewhere near 105,000, i called the guy and it was an older guy, so idk if he beat the crap out of it haha :),

Ya, with that amount of money, you could get two vehicles. Or spend the money on a really nice Blazer. You can still have a good summer in a truck. Think of all the room you'll have for all your buddies when you are going to party! Who could you fit into a sportscar?

I would say buy a camaro if you feel like paying hella insurance on it. Other than that, I would say get the xtreme s10 and maybe put a 4.3 or even a v8 in it with the extra money. Or buy a newer blazer and drop a supercharged v8 with a cowl hood and some rims...that would look sweet.

i was jsut curious about whether or not a exhaust made for a corvette would fit a Camaro with the 350, i'm not all familier abotu corvettes, idk if the header setup is the same or w/e ... but i found a sweet looking exhaust and would like to get one for a camaro if i chose to buy one ... here is teh exhaust
LINK FOR EXHAUST i was just curious whether or not it would fit a camaro ... or if there would be major , moderate, or very little costumazation needing to be done in order to have it sit right, thnx
**Fixed your link so it fits on the screen!**

I highly doubt that it will fit, probably needs highly modified. Look up what the exhaust looks like for the camaro and compair it to the vette. or you could go get it made to look the same.

not bad for a 4th gen(I only like the 1st and 3rd gen camaros, but I cant wait till the new one comes out)
One of my buddys just got back from Irac and he is spending alot of $$ on his 97 TA that has a LT1 and 6spd. I cant wait till he builds it to his wanted 500 hp so I can drive it.
