Post some pics. I bet it does look sweet on a black one. Try Adams polish for your swirls. I bought their detailing kit and their swirl and haze remover did wonders for my RJT. it shows swirls more than I would have thought

I'd always wanted a V8 Camaro and I was determined to make it happen. Good luck with your choice.
Yeah, I know... But there are so many things I could do with the V6 while still staying below the SS in price.

Mm.....I'm surprised about that. Leno could afford to buy an SS.
He can afford to buy one of each!

LMAO. Well, I'm actually eying the Zex nitrous kit. 55 hp shot, 600 bucks. Also comes with jetting for a 110 shot, but I wouldn't want to risk my motor like that.

Injen intake, Magnaflow resonated X, MRT 2.0 axle-back, and a Trifecta tune. That would be one mean V6, and all for less than 2000 bucks. That leaves a lot of room for suspension upgrades before I hit the cost of an SS.

Honestly, the biggest problem would be deciding where to put the button for the nitrous.

Hey Jo! Yeah he can get anything he wants but he probably did it to have the first V6 turbo. His car was at SEMA and it was sweet.

I'm steering clear of Nitrous. I know they've made it safer for your engine but I'd rather not chance it. Strap my blower on and possibly a cam swap and I'll be where I want to be
