runs and drives great. I see no issues with the car. few stone chips on the nose but other then that its a great ride. just deciding if I want to hold off for a six speed. but the price seems good enough on this that if I got bored of the auto I should be able to get out of it atleast

nice job noticing that. gray ***** = 93

the ss badges look lame on a car without a scoop or SS wing

Looks well maintained but since you would prefer a 6 speed I'd look for a later year car to get MAF and vented opti.

For the LT1 model years, most prefer the 1995 because of the MAF and vented opti as stated previously. You'll be thankful for this in the long run. If you've set your sights on a six speed, then wait and get one. Although you may be getting a good deal initially, there will always be that thought of "I should have waited and got what I wanted." Trust me, I've been in that boat before. However, it is ultimately your decision so good luck.

BTW, about two years ago, I came across a 1994 Z28 with 140,000 miles. I paid $3500 and the car came equipped with leather (great condition), pacesetter long tube headers, 3" catless exhaust, 3" cutout, catback, 3.5" chrome tailpipes, mint OEM 10 spoke SS wheels, brand new slotted disc brakes, SS hood, SS wing, SS badging, SLP CAI, Trickflow aluminum elbow, nice Pioneer radio, shift kit, new carpet, and the paint was in great shape. The car drove like a dream and felt very powerful for an LT1. However, the car was red and red is not my favorite color and the car was an auto. Because of these seemingly minor details, I sold the car.

'95+ LT1 was better. My fave year is '96 because of the dual cats. '97 could be best if you like the newer style seats and dash.

The one you posted is definitely a '93. Unless it's been changed, you can always tell a '93 from any other year because the alternator has deadly looking fins on it.

It also has the yellow letter interior. Im in the process of converting all of mine to white, only have a few more things to change.

Basically, I have the exact same car minus the color. Mine has served me well, only thing I have had to replace so far is the water pump.
