[6sigma]

Test drove this LT1 today - dealer was willing to order the car to my spec and let me decide if I want to buy it or not. I have a 17 V6 RS manual that I'd trade for this LT1. The LT1 is rally green, manual, NPP, black 1LE spoiler, and all weather mats. That's it. The V6 is a great engine and sounds really good, but no mistaking it for a V8. The sound and overall aggressiveness and power of the LT1 is the main difference. I love it paired with a manual.

I'm no stranger to GM performance cars. I've had a few Z06 and a couple CTS-Vs (2nd and 3rd gen). But I think I like the NA LT1 best, paired with a manual. I think the question for me now is the 1SS 1LE worth the upgrade from this LT1? Considering that I might take the 1LE to a few track days max, I'm not sure it's worth it - although it does look cool. The LT1 comes with standard all-seasons (which aren't great) but at least I wouldn't have to change tires to use the car regularly here in the midwest.

I even like these wheels on the rally green LT1!
