His link... has more photos...
It is an extremely clean SS... he's about 400 miles away from me... and he stands FIRM on price at $8K.

That one in the picture above has either the GM turbo upgrade tune (some call it the Stage 1 tune) or an aftermarket tune of some kind.
Because I can see the upper Tmap sensor in one of the pictures is the Bosch sensor instead of the factory one.

OH Cool.... Great spot!
The exhaust isn't stock is it... the tail pipe looks larger than normal.

My untrained eyes not seeing what you're seeing... can ya point it out to me?

That makes a little more sense...when I was talking to him... he said a guy looked it a while back and was quite impressed & excited indicating several things above the SS.
The Shop Owner wasn't sure what he was meaning but was happy to hear it.

We're driving over tomorrow... arranged to meet him at the shop.
I'm looking more forward to seeing this one as time passes....

I'm still waiving on the SS Panel, but I'm leaning more towards this one.

Only 216 panel SS build probably a 1,000 faked.

Did a CompNine on the VIN... shows a AXS in RPO... that's a panel correct?
