Heck yes! Thank you sir!

 

U have to decide what ur willing to pay for a car, will tell u to get an lnf but one thing yo remember is the lnd cost more then lsj, u can find lsj aroud 8 to 10k easy from a private seller, the lnfs still going anywhere from 13 to 16k so even tho lnf can make big power for less money they cost more so it equals out. Also consider what kinda power limit ur looking for, i think u said u had no e85 newr u so a bolt on lsj will max out around 260-270ish on pump gas and good tune, the lnf will max around 330ish i think they was a few that got 340 with 93 pump only. Then comes in the factor of do u want 400hp ur looking at having to turbo swap either car for that so its all up to u.

 

I just did a google search and apparently there is a place like 15 miles from me that has e85 at 2.14 a gallon so that brings that option to me :P

 

bolt on lnf with e85 (may need fueling mods i'm not 100%) would be a nice driver. i know with an e47 mix people are seeing mid 300s on the stock turbo

 

Is Trifecta tuning still going on for these platforms I ask because Vince can tune for the e85 correct?

 

Call them make sure they do, google search told me i had a place like 9 miles from me but when i called they didnt carry it anymore.

 

Not all 07s came with gunmetal wheels.

The first half came with polished, second half came with impala gunmetals

Hence my own

 

mine were polished and not gun metal too (07)

 

That's a really nice color Balt!!

 

Found a cheap 07 on my local Craigslist but the underhood pic is crappy. http://austin.craigslist.org/cto/3448452528.html

 

Yeah thats a great price as long as nothing is wrong with it but honestly the 07 tend to be on the higher side of the money 10k or more because of the few updates they got over the 05-06, so 6.5 with 77k mile is an insane deal unless its got a blow tranny or some other problem thats not being put up front. Needless to say id check that out in person because if its got no problems other then a dirty engine bay id buy that asap an use the extra money to either tvs or turbo swap it and still be less then 9k into fully modded.

 

This!

I'd post a pic of my car, but 07Metallic's is my cars twin.



^07' Gunmetal Rims (Impala SS Rims)

 

Will do!

 

This one about four hours away with about 100k miles which has Megan racing suspension on it. Seems to be in good shape. I called the seller regarding the 07 with 77k miles just waiting on a call back. http://elpaso.en.craigslist.org/ctd/3396841927.html

 

looks to have an aftermarket CAI. also might want to check the pulley on that to see if its an aftermaket one also.

With the mods you can see you could always get the dealership to drop the price a bit more

 

I'll try that thanks!

 

Narrowed it down to two LSJs just gotta see which one gives me the better deal. Thanks a lot again for the help everyone.

 

Link both lsj we will help u pick lol

 

i thought that was 09s but i could be wrong

 

The first one is the 06 with 100k miles and I found a 07 in Houston with 70k miles for 11k here it is.

I'm gonna call about this one tomorrow!

all those seem a lil overpriced but thats expected since its a dealership..they do look like they are all in pretty good shape though for the mileage.

id probably go with the red 07 out of those cause it has the least miles but id try to talk them down to about 8500- 9k

 

Yea the 07 is really appealing so I'm gonna try to work something out with them. Either way ill be a real part of the forum soon

 

Could also look into the redlines. It's an lsj, just different body. 06 best year for them.

I picked up my 06 redline comp edition for 12.5k with 22k miles from a dealer. That was April of 2012. So theirs plenty of deals out there.

 

Not a huge fan of the ion body style

 

Early 2007 is the best LSJs, they still had G85 as an option, because later 07s didn't have the G85 package as an option anymore. The 07 also has the same steering wheel as the 08+ and the radios are compatible with the later models.
