Your interior is just like my SS! Gotta love the leather!

Do you have the heated seats option?

Only real difference other than the motor is the front bumper it appears!

BTW you'll have to drive as good as Tom to be able to keep up with me!

Yea....my dad bf and I sometimes take the lemans to the drag races (to watch...its not ready to race yet). So, that would be fun. Races are always a good time. Thanks for the thought of the extra room too.

The interior is coming along now with the carpeting and what not (still lookin for buckets). and prolly this summer hes gonna pull the 350 and rebuild it
