    I really like the paint scheme. Nicest actual production SS I've seen yet.

    Nice car, real nice.
    Those will end up being wicked cars with a few mods.

    I hear a little tuning really wakes them up. Very nice.

    My new 99 Z28 is just about done.

    That's the best looking (new) Camaro i've seen yet. Congrats on your new ride!

    I just looked at the Deer pic. It looks like Bambi is getting ready to give John Deer a hummer!! LOL.

    only thing I don't like is is that it has a long-throw shifter. Put a short throw in there and it will be a lot more fun. Going head to head with an SRT starting at 65, we were neck and neck til about 100. After that the good 'ol Hemi's top end kicks in and my SRT starts pulling away.

    I believe the 2 means that it has the RS packaging. CCFL halos, the decals, and some interior goodies. I'm not exactly sure though.

    I love the chally also...but i wasnt going to put an extra 8K for one...

    i was going with the hurst shifter but they are still not out..

    must have been a bad driver because the camaro doesnt have the quckness in the beginning like the charger but it the ned it catches up...look at all teh videos and notice how high they trap at the end

    the 2SS means it has the leather seats, 4 pack guage in center counsel and other things

    thanks dookie... not every car is made for every person....but i will say its smaller than the challenger

    LOL!!!! like Fiat....:ban:

    hey everyone, just a update 1 year later...
    well the car is running like a champ, love it!!! Miss the srt as an everyday driver, like rowing the gears gets tiresome sometimes in traffic, miss the automatic.i also feel launching this car is tricky and the srt was easier, i guess i need to do the "DRIVER MOD" but as for my build here are the mods up to date

    Pfadt 1.25" drop springs, rotofab intake, dynatech Longtube headers with high flow cats, Borla axle back, foose wheels with 245/40/20 up front and 315/35/20 in the rear (really need them for traction) and finally this weekend, the magnacharger blower with 3.6 pulley, msd BAP and sct tuner....this blower is nasty!!! I should be at 565 rwhp (this is what most LS3 with same mods are at), but i need to go get it dyno tuned to eek out all the hp.....

    hey Chris (legmaker) now i will be more than glad to race you......:D

    Holy crap, Luis, you've been busy. The 'Maro looks great. I know you will enjoy that MagnaCharger.


    Oh, guess I will need to come out to Florida and school you. Nobody pick's on my Legmaker. lol
