What did you get rid of to get your Camaro ?

Did you have a lot of problems with the Audi Outlaw77?? Just curious, my neighbor has an S4 that the warranty is getting ready to expire and I told him he better get rid of it!!

Very cool OneSick. I have a buddy who swaps LS1's into later year S10's as a business.

Thanks Busa.
Wow? As a business? No kidding. V8 S Trucks are a LOT OF FUN. If you've never driven one and have the opportunity, DO IT!

If he has the 2.0T I would recommend getting rid of it before the warranty runs out. They have a very well known problem with heavy carbon build up on the valves and the fuel pump is a mechanical nightmare. Essentially its a cam and lobe set up and it wares out very fast and audi does not warranty it at all. To replace it it's over $1500 for the part alone! My warranty was up at 70,000 km's and that's when I traded it in. One of the shortest warranty's I have ever seen as well. I liked the car but the audi mentality and the way they treated me was a major reason why I wanted something different.

When I traded the Audi in for the Camaro I didn't tell my wife I was doing it because it happened so fast. She was pissed at me because she said she would have bought from me. She loved that car. But because of the issues I knew was coming I wouldn't even sell it to my wife let alone someone I knew. That should say something.

There was a gap of a few years in-between where I had neither, but I sold this and held the cash until the economy stabilized enough to get another toy. aka...ZL1

The TA is a real Y82, 455 4-speed that looked stock but the engine was upgraded. Ported heads (9.5:1) and EGR-less intake, 1.65 rollers, super comp headers, etc. This car was a sub-frame off full resto

Hotlap, if you still have that car and have an interest in selling it I know someone who is looking for something like that.

I sold it and then used the money to buy the ZL1. No regrets
