wasn't that a big selling point for them? having the ls1..

pictures really dont do them any justice. the dealership in town here has one. the ones with these wheels are pretty sharp looking cars.

remember this car is not supposed be a racer just a grunty cruiser, much like the old GTOs

what grand prix are you talking about. this is a 03. there is always going to be some small similities in lots of cars made by the same company.
